"Best job in the world" winner looking for assistants

Ben Southall, the guy getting paid A$150,000 to gallivant around the Great Barrier Reef Region (and write about it) has come under fire for not blogging all that often. Tourism Queensland, who sponsored the "best job in the world" contest, blamed the lack of blog posts on poor Internet access and the fact that well, Ben's just too busy "working". Somehow, I don't think those of us who spend our days in a windowless office have much sympathy for poor Ben.

To help Ben with some of his workload, he and Tourism Queensland are planning on launching another contest - this time to find four assistants. At this point there are no additional details on the positions or what the application process will entail, but Ben promises he'll give us the scoop soon. Hopefully, he can find the time.
