Belatedly: my last Fortune column has been up for a while. It's about nuclear energy, which has never been popular, but which I think no intellectually serious environmentalist can credibly dismiss as an alternative to fossil fuel burning technologies. Nuclear energy is cleaner, and empirically speaking, much, much safer. But we've all seen The China Syndrome and Chernobyl documentaries, which tend to take up more emotional space in the public psyche than things like actual evidence and hard numbers. (Never underestimate the power of Jane Fonda.)

The case for nukes [Fortune]

I'm helping out with recruiting and development for a company that's launching an omnibus culture blog and we're looking for a full-time editor. The ideal candidate is a cultural omnivore who has some experience with blogging, managing/editing people (freelance contributions and submissions by internal staffers), and generating ideas for original content. The candidate should also be familiar with site traffic analysis, if only to understand how the site's audience is responding to the editorial mix.

The client is a company with an established brand that already has quite a bit of proprietary cultural content that should/would be incorporated into the site, but is looking for an editor with a strong vision for the product that extends beyond aggregation of the existing offerings. The ideal candidate is capable of developing an editorial series that draws traffic, is unique to its genre, is well-produced and appeals to both insiders and outsiders.

And those, frankly, are minimum requirements for any good editor. The primary challenge for this particular job is that several genres fit under the "culture" rubric and the editor needs to be able to navigate all of them. So if you happen to have job experience in both music and visual arts (or publishing and video games--multiple genres--etc.), a good generalist is more appealing than a niche expert. Specialists are highly valued in this economy, but we need a jack of all trades. Send resumes and/or suggestions to espiers AT gmail .
