Cos all the cool jobs are on 37 Signals' (and friends') Job Boards?
http://jobs.37signals.com/
http://gigs.37signals.com/
http://www.thinkvitamin.com/jobs/
Think about it: if there are several non-overlapping internets [1],
then it makes sense that never shall boring .NET jobs and kewl Web 2.0
jobs meet on the same job site.
What would be the point of advertising for (say) Ruby on Rails
developers with a corporate-focused job board, when most people
looking there will be Java, C++ or .NET devs?
