» JavaScript Ninja JavaScript Jobs
I've set up a job board, which can be found here: JavaScript Ninja JavaScript Jobs.
Just a quick post, in a follow-up to this one on JavaScript Jobs: I still have a ton of JavaScript jobs sent my way (all the way from simple contract work up to full-blown expert-level developer positions), would there be any interest in a dedicated RSS feed/blog/Mailing list of new listings that get sent my way? I just need a more efficient way of disseminating the posts that I get, but I'm not interested in doing it if there isn't general interest. Thoughts?

I would definitely subscribe ;)
Adam (April 18, 2008 at 9:19 am)
As would I.
Peter Svensson (April 18, 2008 at 9:22 am)
+1
Scott Johnson (April 18, 2008 at 9:26 am)
Sounds good to me.
Cris (April 18, 2008 at 9:27 am)
Great idea. See if you can negotiate a finder's fee while you're at it :)
Tony (April 18, 2008 at 9:32 am)
count me in.
Bramus! (April 18, 2008 at 9:32 am)
I don't think you'll find one reader who'll oppose to this ;)
ani625 (April 18, 2008 at 9:42 am)
Sure thing
Christophe Grand (April 18, 2008 at 10:00 am)
Would be great!
Kit (April 18, 2008 at 10:11 am)
Yes please!
Scott T. (April 18, 2008 at 10:11 am)
I'd subscribe.
There are a few sites that charge $200-300 per job posting to get an audience like yours, John. Most of them are aggregated by http://joblighted.com. If you're interested in making money for your trouble, you might instead try to join the 37Signals job board (or AuthenticJobs or the like) and forward recruiters to that site, syndicate it here or elsewhere, and collect affiliate/referral fees.
Or just do it for free. Either way, I'll watch the feed. :)
Adam Burmister (April 18, 2008 at 10:19 am)
Please, do.
Marc Diethelm (April 18, 2008 at 10:28 am)
Make it so, number one. :)
Steve Streza (April 18, 2008 at 10:34 am)
DO EET NAO.
Craig Buchek (April 18, 2008 at 10:38 am)
I'd definitely be interested. Even more so if it's contract work that I can use jQuery to implement.
John Barnicle (April 18, 2008 at 10:52 am)
Interested - I'm very curious to see what kind of jobs are available n this area - most stuff I see lists javascript as a "nice to have" on top of more pressing requirements.
gGus (April 18, 2008 at 11:12 am)
I also am interested, and I am curious about what kind of jobs float around javascript :)
Chad (April 18, 2008 at 12:07 pm)
I'll subscribe
Chris S (April 18, 2008 at 12:15 pm)
Indeed...

Tom Clancy (April 18, 2008 at 12:40 pm)
Yes, please.
brad dunbar (April 18, 2008 at 12:43 pm)
Always looking for contract work in javascript...always.
picardo (April 18, 2008 at 1:11 pm)
Most definitely, yes.
Anthony Ettinger (April 18, 2008 at 1:36 pm)
Definitly...like jobs.perl.org, but for JS
Jabapyth (April 18, 2008 at 2:38 pm)
yes, that sounds great!
Remy Sharp (April 18, 2008 at 2:45 pm)
I was just saying to a guy yesterday that we need a jsjobs site. Django has it, so does Perl, and bunch of others.
I'd be happy to help contribute some development resource.
mike krisher (April 18, 2008 at 2:51 pm)
i would subscribe as well
Les (April 18, 2008 at 3:45 pm)
I'd subscribe... great idea :)
Adam Christian (April 18, 2008 at 4:33 pm)
It's always interesting to skim the possibilities :) +1

Or, you could quickly setup your own job board, using jobberBase.

given your clout in the community i imagine there may be better chance that the volume of jobs being sent your way for dissemination would become bothersome to keep up with than lack of interest.
perhaps you could set up a form page somewhere here with required fields like company domain, etc., which you could direct these inquiries to. upon submission and your manual auth they could be automatically posted to a blog which your readers could receive as a feed.
it might be overkill and make that feed like craigslist for ajax gigs but an idear nonetheless.
miksago (April 18, 2008 at 9:21 pm)
yeah, I guess I'd be interested..
Fabrizio Calderan (April 19, 2008 at 2:31 am)
Absolutely interested
Tyler (April 19, 2008 at 2:52 pm)
Absolutely John, if only to spread your Jquery seed throughout the land.
engtech (April 19, 2008 at 3:31 pm)
Great idea.
Roshan Bhattarai (April 20, 2008 at 11:13 am)
I'm also in the list
Lezlancs (April 20, 2008 at 5:45 pm)
Un-be-liev-ab-le.
Definitely would blow my mind.
Marcus Westin (April 20, 2008 at 6:08 pm)
It sounds like a good idea.
Wes P (April 21, 2008 at 2:17 pm)
Heck no!!
Actually, I'm just being contradictory. I thought at least one person needed to give a negative response, even though it is a lie and I'd be interested to see that kind of feed.
