The New York Times
Location: New York, NY

Full list with links to detail descriptions:

I'm sure here will be some fun comments about print media dying and the pay-wall etc. but this is platform and web focused. We build a lot of cool fun stuff from our own API's, standalone web apps, social platforms, open source apps, standards, and a lot more mobile stuff on the way too. I've been there many years (web developer) and its a great place to work with many smart people…
Some URLs of note (the fun stuff IMHO):
Open Blog: http://open.blogs.nytimes.com/ http://open.blogs.nytimes.com/
NYT APIs: http://developer.nytimes.com/ http://developer.nytimes.com/
Times Wire: http://www.nytimes.com/timeswire/index.html http://www.nytimes.com/timeswire/index.html (completely developer driven)
Times Skimmer: http://www.nytimes.com/timesskimmer/ http://www.nytimes.com/timesskimmer/ (completely developer driven)
Times People: http://timespeople.nytimes.com/view/user/37963625/activities.html http://timespeople.nytimes.com/view/user/37963625/activities...
Here is a horribly titled NY Mag article on some of the developers in the Newsroom:

Happy to answer questions and update this as I check back but otherwise follow that first link up top.
- apphacker 17y agoWorking for such a well known brand would be fun, but The New York Times is deeply in debt (one billion dollars), subscription rates are falling, and there's no new money generating business in sight that will be able to help it out with its financial costs. I just don't think five or ten years from now the New York Times will be what it is now, and I'd want their options like I want a hole in my pocket. http://www.theawl.com/2009/07/arthur-sulzberger-explains-1-billion-in-new-york-times-debt-to-staff http://www.theawl.com/2009/07/arthur-sulzberger-explains-1-b...
- chrischen 17y agoThe links on http://www.nytimes.com/features/openings/index.html http://www.nytimes.com/features/openings/index.html don't seem to be working for me. Could you describe what a creative technologist is? And do you consider candidates who don't have degrees (yet)?
- alnayyir 17y agoThat nymag article title made me cringe. I clicked it not thinking it would be that visceral of an experience. :)
- Scriptor 17y agoWould you be willing to hire students part-time this summer? I'd like to work in web development since that is where most of my experience is.
