++ As of 12/14, there is a brand new philosophy job market MESSAGE BOARD. Join the discussion here:
http://philosophyjobs.proboards.com/++ There's also a new Philosophy Gossip blog:
http://philosophygossip.blogspot.com/++ PJMB alums have a new blog on professional philosophy issues:
http://philosophysmoker.blogspot.com++ I'm not affiliated with the wiki, but I'm going to add the new entries here to a blog at:
http://philosophywikiblog.blogspot.com/ to make adding an RSS feed for daily updates easier.++ I don't know who "runs" the Wiki, but does anyone object to me or someone else going through this and cleaning it up? It would make it much more helpful. (For example, if all of the information for a particular T-T job was located on 1 line, then we wouldn't have to check 3 places.)
