I was looking at information on creative writing courses, then thought I'd look at what kind of organisations might seek to employ someone with such a qualification.
Well, you could have knocked me over. My jaw dropped at what I read. What a boost to all who spend 24/7 on this site and others, cos one job had as a special requirement...
"An excellent knowledge of the online world, in particular social networking sites like Facebook, Twitter and Foursquare."
Heck, I must be so behind the times...What on earth is 'Foursquare'???
Oh, and this is a position advertised by a local company.
Imagine that, someone will be PAID to spend time on these sites!!!

Hi sugga, I don't know that it's merely passing us by. I rather see it as technology as whizzing past us!
About your FB account, go into your account settings and change them quick smart, so that only 'friends' can see your information. Stay safe.
Foursquare is a location-based social networking website, available on web and most smartphones. Kind of different from Facbook as you need to 'check in' in some physical locations and earn some type of badges. Not that popular so far but catching on...

Thanks, zeus. Time for a bit of googling!

Also, I found out there is a Foursquare Church here in Australia!...Maybe they started the socail networking gizmo???
a foursquare church? interesting! You'll be finding some alien connection soon - maybe thats why they want everyone to check in their location to beam them up to the mothership

The thought had crossed my mind!
Wonder why wew haven't heard about them openly. Stay tuned, fellow beamers!
davpk10: Actually my mother used this saying often..... Being tickle pink I believe came from when being tickled you laugh and your face turn pink/red from laughter...
Now I'm feeling old!
That's been an oft-used term here in Aussie Land...a very English term, but then we do have the obvious connections.

I'd say that being on CS is a GREAT basis to build a career of creative writing on..

Funny you should say that, DB. I am on here now, collecting some of my posts as part of sample writing for a course I'm applying as we speak. Deadline is tomorrow, so it's a mad scramble. Goodness knows what the course controller will think when he reads them!
