		<description><![CDATA[<p><div id="attachment_52182" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 310px"><a href="http://veetle.com/index.php/listing/index/all/popular"><img class="size-medium wp-image-52182" title="Veetle" src="http://nyobetabeat.files.wordpress.com/2012/06/picture-110.png?w=300" alt="" width="300" height="158" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Beautiful people only, plz. (Photo: Veetle)</p></div></p>
<p>Sometimes when it's a boring news day, we like to troll the depths of Craigslist for story ideas, and today we unearthed quite a gem. It’s an <a href="http://newyork.craigslist.org/mnh/tfr/3100443896.html">ad</a> posted to the NYC jobs section, seeking “mobile ambassadors” for the Valley-based startup <a href="http://www.veetle.com/">Veetle</a>, a Viddy-like service that allows users to stream live video clips.</p>
<p>Of course, you need active users to build a successful service like Veetle. If Reddit <a href="http://www.dailydot.com/business/steve-huffman-built-reddit-fake-accounts/">built</a> their site with an army of fake accounts, Veetle will build its platform with an army of beautiful people, ugly users be damned.</p>
<p>"We're looking for actors and actresses to be Mobile Ambassadors - aka use our free mobile app to broadcast their lives on a semi-regular basis," reads the ad entitled "Good looking people needed." "You will use the mobile app to to broadcast live (can be anything - trips to the store, gyms, conversations, anything random in your life... )." Because who wants to watch <em>ugly</em> people doing mundane things?</p>
<p><!--more-->The ad continues:</p>
<blockquote><p><strong>You should be:</strong><br />
*Extremely Photogenic<br />
*Lead an interesting life (and not be afraid to share it)<br />
*Have an iPhone or Android phone</p></blockquote>
<p>The Veetle team will kindly pay you $10/hour to grace the site with your lovely mug, all in the name of growing their startup business. Really, it's almost like <em>they're</em> doing <em>you</em> a favor.</p>
<p>Sadly we only meet one of Veetle's stringent requirements. Guess we won't be serving as a Veetle Mobile Ambassador any time soon. :(</p>
