Did you know that you are part of a network? It's call of The Hive Learning Network NYC.

The Hive Learning Network NYC is a joint endeavor between the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation and Mozilla Foundation.  Hive links together libraries, museums, after-school programs and community-based organizations through collaborative, digital projects that create greater learning opportunities for youth.

Well guess what? Hive has a column on Huffington Post.  Huffington Post High School is a channel for youth involved in Hive programs (that's you!) to share their experiences/words/videos/podcasts/apps/etc. with their peers and to be published on a prestigious international news site. You'll see the first post, "The Future of Education" by Sharon Mizrahi (NYC), explores her unique and inspiring learning experience working with a range of cultural/civic/tech orgs through Hive. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/sharon-mizrahi/the-future-of-education_b_1020951.html

The second post, "Top 10 TV Episodes of My Childhood" by Matthew Byrd (CHI), is all about youth culture. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/matthew-byrd/top-10-tv-episodes-of-my-_b_1102102.html?ref=high-school

The only restriction is that contributors are over the age of 14. They can contribute once (or more if they'd like). It can be poetry, a podcast, a game...You can used something that you have already made and shared with your friends. As incentive (on top of being published on HuffPo - great for your resume/portfolio) you'll get a $25 gift card and a Hive T-shirt.
