Ainda os estágios não remunerados

A questão dos estágios não remunerados parece estar na ordem do dia do outro lado do Atlântico. Vale a pena ler os comentários dos leitores da Atlantic compilados em dois artigos. Um, contra os estágios remunerados, o outro, a favor.

Unpaid internships: Bad for students, bad for workers, bad for society

In defense of unpaid internships

[UPDATE]

Mais uma acha para a fogueira:

Work is work: why free internships are immoral.

Redes sociais e gestão de comunidades

A produção de conteúdos para redes sociais e a gestão de comunidades são dos temas que mais me têm interessado nos últimos tempos. Em viagens pela blogosfera, tenho lido muito sobre o assunto: como podem os jornalistas tirar partido das redes sociais, como criar comunidades que envolvam os utilizadores, como trabalhar na área dos social media... Opiniões, dicas e análises não faltam, mas decidi compilar algumas das que me pareceram mais interessantes para quem está a começar a entrar a sério neste admirável mundo novo. Conto actualizar a lista sempre que se justificar.
