\n> ShiftSpace has 3 internships opening up this fall. We’ve been very
\n> busy lately with several projects including a social layer for the
\n> Modern Museum of Art web site, a new ShiftSpace release (1.0!), and
\n> single click install WordPress plugin (collaborative annotations
\n> right on your blog). You can check us out here http:\/\/shiftspace.org.

\n>
\n> Description:
\n> The ShiftSpace Open Source team is looking for a front end
\n> Javascript wizard to join our ranks in taking us towards the 1.0
\n> release as well as contributing to the WordPress plugin. The web
\n> browser space continues to push forward in exciting ways (HTML5,
\n> native audio\/video, Canvas tag, CSS3, etc.) and the ShiftSpace
\n> project embraces these advancements.
\n>
\n> If you’re excited about cutting edge user interface work and web
\n> browser interface augmentation\/extension, then this position is
\n> ideal for you.
\n>
\n> Skills Wanted:
\n> Experience with Python, Ruby, Javascript (jQuery or MooTools),
\n> CouchDB is a bonus. However, significant experience in any dynamic
\n> programming language is sufficient for this position. A thirst for
\n> knowledge is the most important attribute- if user interface design,
\n> animation, and the words functional programming, lambdas, and
\n> prototypes get you excited, then we want to talk to you.
\n>
\n> Backend Developer
\n> =================
\n>
\n> Description:
\n> The ShiftSpace Open Source team is looking for a kick-ass back end
\n> wizard to join our ranks in upgrading the system’s backend towards

\n> you have reasonable experience in PHP and Python we can teach you
\n> most of the REST (and by REST we mean CouchDB).
\n>
\n> Join us in some very exciting developments towards becoming a
\n> decentralized web platform and playing with the exciting new open
\n> source technologies out there such as CouchDB, Mozilla Jetpack,
\n> Google Chrome Extensions, Google Wave.
\n>
\n> Skills Wanted:
\n> Experience with Python, Javascript (jQuery or MooTools), CouchDB, or
\n> Lucene is a bonus. However, significant experience in any
\n> programming language is sufficient for this position. A thirst for
\n> knowledge is the most important attribute- if the words key-value
\n> store, database replication, map\/reduce, functional programming, and
\n> JSONP sound exciting, we want to talk to you.
\n>
\n>

\n> ================================================
\n>
\n> Description:
\n> The ShiftSpace open source team is looking for a a charismatic,
\n> enthusiastic and forward thinking individual to manage its community
\n> outreach, open source advocacy, and conceptualizing the interface
\n> between software development and community development. If you are a
\n> people’s person, enthusiastic about open source and social media and
\n> am self-directed, the project can benefit a lot from your
\n> contribution, and we’re pretty sure you can get quite a lot out of
\n> it too.
\n>
\n> Join us in some very exciting developments towards becoming a

\n> would love for you to get your initial experience working with us.
\n>
\n>
\n>
\n> More Information
\n> ================
\n>
\n> Compensation:
\n> This is an internship with an open source team – meaning none of us
\n> are getting payed and we share a credit based on our contribution.
\n> If we hire you to work on payed projects like the implementation of
\n> ShiftSpace on the MoMA website, you will get payed for your work.
\n>
\n> Other Job Requirements:
\n> The ideal applicant will be a team player, enthusiastic about open
\n> source and the web, self-taught and willing to teach others,
\n> patient, fan of collaboration, and petty political debates.
\n>
\n> About Us:
\n> http:\/\/www.ShiftSpace.org, ShiftSpace is an open source project
\n> involving interface hackery, social media and the future of the web.
\n>
\n> While the Internet’s design is widely understood to be open and
\n> distributed, control over how users interact online has given us
\n> largely centralized and closed systems. ShiftSpace is an Open Source
\n> platform that attempts to subvert this trend by providing a new
\n> public space on the web. By pressing the [Shift] + [Space] keys, a
\n> ShiftSpace user can invoke a new meta layer above any web page to
\n> browse and create additional interpretations, contextualizations and
\n> interventions using various authoring tools.
\n>

\n> Name: Mushon Zer-Aviv
\n> Address: 274 Morgan Ave. 4th Floor
\n> Brooklyn, NY 11211

\n> E-mail: info@shiftspace.com
\n>
\n> Application Instructions:
\n> Please provide a cover letter with your Resume and a few examples of
\n> relevant projects (preferably online) you executed and will make you
\n> qualify for the job. Please tell us what would make you our ideal
\n> hacker.
