I've been toying with the idea for quite a while and now I think I'm ready to give it a shot. I'm looking to make GorillaSushi.com into a
multi-blogger site. Ideally I think it should consist of 4-5 bloggers writing regularly - each bringing something unique to the table.
Interested? Do you love to blog but don't have the time to maintain a whole site? Are you a brilliant blogger but always find yourself feeling guilty if you take a few days off? Looking for more of a
community?
What I'm Looking For:
- A broad range of subject matter - A group of eclectic bloggers covers more ground, inspires more interaction and has a broader appeal.
- Regular posting - I won't set min./max. limits. Once a day is nice. Or once a week. Or 5 times a day. As long as there is quality, quantity doesn't matter.
- Appealing subject matter - Of course "appealing" is subjective. Subject matter should appeal to readers all over the world and not just to friends/family. A post about how boring your day was doesn't interest many people outside of your circle of friends.
- Personal involvement - Again, subjective, but there should be some effort to approach subjects with some level of personal opinion. For instance when submitting videos, news stories or links some effort should be made to add a personal spin.
What's In It For You:

- As of today there are 179 subscribers to this site and that number grows by 3-7 people a day.
- Working as a team means more discussion in comments and more people willing to help with research, code, etc.
- Right now, all ad revenue goes toward hosting costs but as it grows, profit sharing will be implemented.
- Blog all you want without having to worry about site maintenance and upkeep.
If you already have a blog and don't want to give it up, you're still invited to write for GorillaSushi too. I only ask that you don't duplicate content or use GS to advertise your site.
Interested?
- Sign up for the Gorilla Army.
- Use my contact form to send me an email with links to your writing, samples of your writing, concepts, ideas or anything else that would show how you would fit in here.

I'll leave this open for a
few weeks. If you're interested, I don't want you to feel rushed. Once I've got a few intersted people, the layout of the site will change slightly - teasers on the front page, "written by" tags, etc.
This is only an experiment. I hope and expect everything to work out beautifully but if it just doesn't seem right, I won't continue it.
