For over two years now I’ve been kept an interest in a once-obscure online project to give whistle-blowers a venue to leak classified information to journalists and the whole World Wide Web alike.

Currently “Wikileaks” is a name with ubiquitous recognition, and a subject that nearly everyone has an opinion on (even if that opinion is “I wish people would stop talking about it”). Its affairs have also become an excellent opportunity for public discussion about the politics, evolution, and ownership of the Internet.

Great Community Ideas

Hamilton Centre for Teaching Peace is proud to announce “Conscious Communities”, a three-night series of local community organizers sharing ideas with short, free and open public presentations to be held November 11-13, 2010 at a number of locations in downtown Hamilton.

Mayday Magazine is always seeking enthusiastic volunteers for distribution, advertising sales, web site assistance, social networking help, and general promotions.

Distribution

Mayday Magazine's print edition is available at numerous locations across the greater Hamilton area. We'd love to be in even more places, and could use extra volunteers each month to spread Mayday far and wide.

Web Assistance

Got experience helping managing web sites, or want to gain experience? Our website is powered using the open-source content management system Joomla!, extended with the content construction kit K2. This allows the site to both be powerful in its extendibility and easy to learn how to manage. Contact us if you have some spare time each month to help out!

Photographers and Photo Editors

Whether you're aspiring to become a pro, or comfortable as an amateur photographer -- either way if you're looking for a project to regularly contribute to, you may have noticed we don't have a lot of photos online yet. Contact us if you'd like to become a regular contributor or editor of photos.

Ad Sales

Advertising sales helps fund Mayday Magazine and keep it alive and growing. If you have some sales skills and would like to help us out, we would be glad to have the assistance.

Bloggers

Now that we're online, we're seeking to expand to ongoing content throughout the month via blogs. Please contact us with any pitches for a blog, along with a couple sample entries so we can get a good idea of your writing style, and understand what you'd like to cover.

Social Networking

Do you enjoy tweeting a little too much? Do you live on Facebook? Mayday's seeking to expand its reach to new readers through new social media networks, and could use a few hands to make the work that much easier.

Contact Us!

If you are interested in helping us out in any of these capacities, please contact us.
