Hi, Jeff-

I asked Mike if any of CNET's sites might be looking for freelancers, and he mentioned you, so I just wanted to introduce myself in case you might have some work available at some point. My articles have appeared in dozens of publications including National Lampoon, The Onion A.V. Club, McSweeney's, and Cracked, and my first book, Flock of Dodos: Behind Modern Creationism, Intelligent Design, and the Easter Bunny, was released last March to praise from Rolling Stone, Air America Radio, and other sources. I'm also an avid gamer (currently own a Wii, Xbox 360, and a nice gaming computer).

Let me know if you might have something for me down the line.

Thanks,

Barrett Brown

Jeff,

I know you're a long way from figuring out your freelance editorial needs, but I just wanted to introduce you to Barrett Brown who interned for us last year as we geared up Political Base. So here's the introduction!

Best,
MT
