Yesterday, I interviewed for and landed an internship position with Diva Talk Radio as a Production Assistant. Â I’m very excited about it. Â While it’s an unpaid internship, I will be learning a lot of new things that will be great new additions to my skill set and my resume. (Isn’t the Diva adorable?) Â Some of the things I will be doing include:
I’m excited to work with Kelly Claypool, who is the owner of Diva Talk Radio and Briefcase Diva. Â We had a good talk yesterday and I think we’re going to hit it off very well. Â She is also a Christian and has similar values to mine, which is a great starting point! Â I’m excited to learn the back-end of the podcasting arena, as that is something brand new to me. Â You can listen to the podcast online, if you’d like!
Then today, when I opened my email, if found out that I’ve won a one-year subscription to the Freelance Switch Job Board by entering a comment contest!  I’m so excited! Â
God has been so good lately! Â First, the play…now another exciting opportunity with the internship…and the Freelance subscription. Â I’m not really sure where He is leading, but I’m certainly enjoying the journey!
Oh, on a side note….I also just purchased a Magic Jack VOIP device.  It’s got rave reviews–it even received a PC Mag Editor’s Choice Award!  They said:
BOTTOM LINE:Â So simple it’s almost perfect, the magicJack is the best home voice-over-IP gadget I’ve seen to date. Excellent call quality, a workable set of calling features, and an amazing price make this little box the VoIP wonder to beat.
So, I’ll post my review after I’ve worked with it for a while. Â I know we can’t get rid of our house phone because of the DSL, but it will probably be clearer reception than the cell phones for long distance–and we can take it anywhere. Â
If nothing else, I can use it as a business phone. Â I signed up for a year for $39, including the hardware, and it’s $19.99 per year after that–you supply a physical phone. Â There’s a 30-day, risk-free, money-back guarantee–even including return postage! Â They must be pretty confident about how good it is! Â I’ll let you know!
