The blog will be more free-wheeling than the Mountain View Patch homepage and Patch doesn't own your blog content, meaning you can repost stuff on other sites (though we ask that you please link back to Patch). Bloggers will be unpaid.

If you are passionate about anything in Mountain View—whether it's education, burrowing owls, government, traffic, business, restaurants, shopping or pets (literally, anything)—are a prolific writer and have a strong voice, then you're perfect for a Mountain View Patch's blog.
