Chicagoist Focus Wanted

Chicago is looking for people to contribute to their site on a regular basis. Most notable is that they need someone to regularly post photographs in their "Focus" section. From their website:

Focus
Chicagoist loves to bring you photos of our city and our city's people. We added the Flickr button so everyone can participate, but we still want to get a photographer of our own for the Focus feature of the site. Share your photos with us on a weekly basis.

If you'd like to apply for any of these postitions, send an email to chicagoistapply(at)gmail(dot)com and indicate the position you're applying for in the subject line. In the email tell us about yourself, why you'd be good on that beat, and throw in a sample post if you like.
