Applying for a new job!

Finally some updates worth posting about! As you have all noticed the blog has been pretty dead for the past 2 months (I focused mainly on my work with sc2gg.com, more on that later, and on my political blog).

As you guys know, I'm a big fan of poker and I've been looking for a job I can truly dedicate myself to, something I feel useful in. Well good news! I might have found the perfect match. Some of you might know of PokerStrategy.com, one of the best and biggest online poker schools. Originally a German based site, PS is now offered in a multitude of language and supports a healthy community of poker players worldwide. Well, I have decided to apply for a job as a community manager over there! This also means I will have to relocate close to their offices in southern Spain, if they decide to hire me (cross your fingers, I really wish they hire me, you guys know how much I love Poker and online work).

Also, for those of you who know about my personal life, you know how much I have been hoping to move to Europe, well it seems this might be it! Although the relocation might be delayed a bit, because of the financial state my last job left me in.
That's something else my close friends know about, I was a day trader on the NASDAQ/NYSE but with the current market crisis and housing crash in the US, the markets have been pummeling and things have been looking pretty dim for a young day trader with little experience like me.

I am so excited for this that I have a hard time structuring my blog post correctly! But hopefully all goes well and I can soon enjoy the Mediterranean climate :)

Oh, by the way, many of PokerStrategy's staff comes from a competitive gaming background, how cool is that? I really feel like I might have found my niche with this company! So keep me in your prayers (or whatever you believe in, heh) as I anxiously wait for a response from their HR department. After all these years of giving time and working with online communities, it seems my experience might come handy for a paid position!

As I mentionned in the introduction, I have spent a lot of time working with sc2gg.com recently. In the next 2-3 days I should have a detailed post with some information on this new Starcraft community for all you gamers reading my blog. All I can say right now is you should visit the site if you enjoy SC, as they provide some of the best english commentary of the Korean scene. Visit the forums, as the front page is not fully functionnal yet (I am actually designing the new page layout which should go live around the 1st of June).

Stay tuned!
