Question regarding

Question regarding ownership. If one is hired to write for MaxPC, are ownership rights retained by the author or does MaxPC own the content we write? Does the author give MaxPC exclusive rights to the content? Just curious :) I would assume that last quesiton to be true, but I'm less sure on the first question. I appreciate you taking the time to answer my inquiry maxpc :)

Just read Ars Technica and DigiTimes and steal their articles. That's what the current writers seem to do. Most of the articles on this site are here one or two days after I've already read them somewhere else (usually with references to where I read them the first time).

Age Requirement
Submitted by ONaE on Thu, 08/06/2009 - 6:51pm
Seriously is there an age requirement for the job? I'm assuming 18, because its pretty much standard. However, let's say a 16 year old chose to apply, would he be eligible?
