Obama Leads with Transparency/Trust
by gscott [permalink]
I will never post another CNN video. Not only do I find their video streaming technology buggy, but they also took down the embed link that is part of this blog post. They do a better job than most news networks, but just throwing money at social media does not necessarily lead to great applications.

Top 20 Job Sites Widget
by gscott [permalink]
I like all of the sites on our Top 20 Job Sites Widget, but here’s a quick review of the notable few.
-
I like the new look and vision for Monster.com. They are trying to be more job seeker-centric.
LinkedIn is the best for networking, which is the best way to find a job. Everyone that wants a new or better career should be using it.
SimplyHired.com and Indeed.com are the best aggregate job search engines. I would suggest using them if you want to cover all of the major job boards with a single search.
In this new economy many of you are thinking of changing careers and many are thinking of how they can make a difference - check out the idealist.org to make a step towards that change. As Obama says, “We’re going to have to take responsibility — all of us.”
