Are you hopelessly addicted to the internet? Do you Digg, Stumble and blog on a daily basis? Do you Twitter while you’re Powncing?

We are in the process of expanding our little online empire here at Make Use Of and we are always looking for more writers to help us turn the site into something bigger and better than ever before.

Are you wondering if you fit the bill?

Well you can easily find out by taking the following Make Use Of entrance examination:

• Are you totally obsessed with computers and the internet?
• Are you constantly telling people about the latest new cool web app that you have just found online?
• Are you the first person people come to when they have a question about their PC or web?
• Are you good at explaining stuff and getting your point across in a neutral unbiased sort of way?
• Can you write regular posts on a long-term basis? At least one lengthy post or a couple of quick ones a week?
• Do you have a good working knowledge of the WordPress blogging platform?
• Do you have a panic attack if your internet connection goes down for two minutes?

If you answered “yes” to all of these questions then you are the person we’re looking for!

• You make yourself available as often as possible online and you respond to emails and instant messages in a timely fashion.
