My Job Boards

I've been in the job board business for over 10 years. I started my first site in 1999. FairfieldCountyJobs.com is the top job board in Connecticut and the flagship site for AllCountyJobs.com. We now offer ct jobs, jobs in NY, Mass jobs and RI jobs. I'm also the founder of the first ever audio jobcast site. Check out my new green job boards.

I was wondering if Ning is treating you well.

I had a network on Ning but had to move out, just didn't seem to customizable. Went on to learn Drupal for that.

I am more a lurker and feel a need to contribute more. I think you have done a great job in nurturing this community here. Thank you.

And then there were 2: Monster buys Hotjobs

Well, well well. The big 3 are now the big 2. Monster is buying Hotjobs.

Here's the press release:

Monster to Acquire HotJobs Business and Enter into Multi-year TrafficAgreement with Yahoo!
