“We at the Murphy-Goode Winery got to thinking about the new age of communications and we figured it was a pretty good thing.
So to get going, were looking for someone who really knows how to use Web 2.0 and Facebook and blogs and social media and YouTube and all sorts of good stuff like that — to tell the world about our wines and the place where we live: the Sonoma County Wine Country.
In exchange, were offering you a Really Goode Job — a six-month job paying $10,000 a month plus accommodations!
50 lucky people are now on a short list to become caretaker of a tropical Australian island — dubbed the “Best Job in the World.”
Officials with the tourism department of Australia’s Queensland state on Tuesday revealed the 50 finalists from a pool of nearly 35,000 applicants for the job - a 150,000 Australian dollar ($96,000) contract to relax on Hamilton Island in the Great Barrier Reef for six months while writing a blog to promote the area.
The finalists hail from 22 countries, including the United States, Germany, Greece and India. Applicants include an actor, a chef and a scientist.
