Ben Smith Is BuzzFeed's New Editor-In-Chief!

buzzfeed:

We mostly picked Ben because of his keen horsemaning ability.

As editor in chief, Mr. Smith will hire more than a dozen reporters right away, said Jonah Peretti, who founded BuzzFeed with Kenneth Lerer, “and then we will keep growing from there.” 

Does this mean I could possibly turn my Tumblr into a job? Hmmm, Buzzfeed? Hmmm…
