“Facebook Looking for Writers”

Remember, the old days of Google Answers? I do as I actually was one of their editors and answered questions for pay.  Google closed up show awhile ago but Yahoo Answers is still alive and kicking at http://answers.yahoo.com/ . It’s a site where people post their burning questions and then hope that someone with deep wisdom will come along and shine some light on it. Sounds easy, right? 

Well, it appears that Facebook may want a piece of that action. They’ve posted a “help wanted” form for writers’ over at http://www.facebook.com/product_application/  You simply answer three questions to the best of your ability and submit for Facebook’s approval. It doesn’t appear that there’s any money involved but if you’re selected you could get a trip to California to tour their headquarters. So, if you’ve got plenty of free time on your hands and don’t care about money, you might want to apply.
