MTV Looking for a Twitter DJ (TJ)!

Is this a sign of the times or what? MTV is looking for someone to serve as a VJ on Twitter, aka a TJ :).

I think back to the days of Martha Quinn and Adam Curry in the 80s and to think we've now come to a DJ on Twitter just totally cracks me up.

So what will this "TJ" do? MTV says that this person will be the personality of MTV on Twitter. And did I mention you get a $100,000 salary and VIP access to major entertainment events?

They've already selected 18 candidates and are looking for two additional that will be chosen based on folks nominated through June 27.

Then, the final 20 will compete in a variety of Twitter-based challenges to narrow it down to 5 who will appear on the finale on TV Aug. 8. Then a nationwide vote will determine the winner.

Man, if I were just graduating college, I would so be all over this!
