habit of calling “Oh, Henry” to a family cat In 1887, Porter married Athol Estes He worked as a
draftsman, then as a bank teller for the First National Bank
In 1894 Porter founded his own humor weekly, the “Rolling Stone”, a venture that failed

new media has opened up a wide range of Internet career opportunities requiring only a minimal

level of technical expertise Probably one of the most well-known online job opportunities is the job
of Webmaster However, it is hard to define one basic job description for this position The qualifications and responsibilities depend on what tasks a particular organization needs a Webmaster to perform
To specify the job description of a Webmaster, one needs to identify the hardware and software the website the Webmaster will manage is running on Different types of hardware and software require different skill sets to manage them Another key factor is whether the website will
be running internally or externally (renting shared space on the company servers) Finally, the
responsibilities of a webmaster also depend on whether he or she will be working independently, or
whether the firm will provide people to help All of these factors need to be considered before one
can create an accurate webmaster job description

services An added benefit to such online jobs is that freelancers are able to work on projects with
companies outside their own country
How much can a person make in these kinds of careers? As with many questions related to today’s evolving technology, there is no simple answer There are many companies willing to pay people with Internet skills salaries well over $70,000 a year Generally, webmasters start at about
$30,000 per year, but salaries can vary greatly Freelance writers working online have been known to make between $40,000 to $70,000 a year
