There is a lot of technology here, but not a lot of open jobs.  The northeast 
has lost many thousands of jobs.  Many of us have been out of work for a year 
or more.

I don't think you need to show up to be on any of our mailing lists, but I 
don't think that list is active anymore.  I've posted job listings to the 
discuss list, though.

I'm working on a page of job search links:

I also host a mailing list for discussing business, the job market, and the 
economy in the northeast.
