My job as an assistant editor at Utah Business magazine is pretty rad. Having my own office is a plus and I get to do what I love and get paid for it. It's pretty sweet. I primarily work on the Website, utahbusiness.com. I publish five daily stories (one written by me, four PR or newswire) for UtahBusiness.com and then four stories (three PR or newswire local and one national from CNET) for the Wasatch Digital iQ Website. It's neat to be in the know about what is going on with local business and technology news everyday. I also do several other tasks for the Website, including updating the events calendar, publishing stories written by business professionals on our blog (UB Blog), putting each magazine issue online, publishing about 1 to 2 podcasts a week, and also doing a little bit of site maintenance. It's fun...sometimes tedious...but that's typical for journalism jobs.
Creating podcasts for the Website has actually been fun. I just started a weekly podcast called UB Radio, which is a podcast that reviews the week's top headlines, lists announcements from Utah Business and then features an interview with one or two top business leaders in Utah. Click on the UB Radio link in this post to see my first UB Radio podcast. The UB Radio podcasts will be published on the Utah Business Website every Friday.
This Friday for the next upcoming podcast, I will be interviewing one of the finalists for the 2009 iQ Awards, an awards program that honors the best achievements in technology in the state of Utah. I'm pretty excited for it. It should be interesting!
