Could you be Southwest Airline's new Blog-o-spondent?

Are you handy with the camcorder, good at setting up shots and taking quality video? Were you the founding member and president of the A/V club in high school? Do people always think that you're the center of attention at parties? Then you might be a great candidate for Southwest's new Blog-o-spondent position to which they just started recruiting.

Over the past few months, the airline took one of their lucky employees through a whirlwind tour of the company as she video blogged the entire experience. Now, they're looking for a Southwest fan to hand off the reins. The lucky person will be assigned a year's worth of excitement as he or she jetsets around the country, video blogging on the entire airline, experience and any excitement that's going on in the Southwest community.

Obviously the airline is going to pick someone that's quirky, loves flying and is great on video, so try to emulate those traits if you don't have them and put together a one minute video application.

Think you've got what it takes? Take a look at the trailer and head over to Nuts About Southwest for details on the contest.
