Open Source Job Listings

Wed, July 12, 2006 — Category: Open Source

In my recent decision to leave my current job in search of a more LAMP-friendly environment, I came across opensourcexperts.com.
Some of the postings in categories are over a year old, I’m hoping to revive it a bit by writing about it here.
The job searches are available as RSS feeds as well as via the site.

I always wanted to know all the combinations of what my phone number spelled out….now you can with What does your phone number spell?.

It reminds me of when I was a kid, and called people up and said, “Did you know your phone number spells <insert word here>”…then my sister would call them back and apologize about how her little brother was being a brat, and that she was sorry for bother them.

I guess we were pretty bored at times growing up.

I was reluctant to use my area code…I don’t know what database these are going into.

The best one it came up with was “65-NAGS-3″. The other ones were “656-BIRD”, and “6-JOB-4-RE” which is ironic, because as of next week I will no longer work in the release engineering team at my company (ok, maybe that’s a stretch as to any correlation what so ever).

There’s a similar site at phonespell.org which returned “OK-6-BIRD”…much better. “OK-MA-IS-3″ was another one, I’ll have to mention that to my ma.

Blog Readability - Tracking Eye Movements

Jakob Nielsen has an interesting article about the F-Shaped Pattern that occurs when people scan through a web page.
Placement of ads and your most valuable links can be optimized given the “F-shape” pattern, and sometimes an upside down “L-shape” or “E-shape” pattern.
It makes you wonder if using a right-hand navigation bar is better or worse…as […]

Jakob Nielsen has an interesting article about the F-Shaped Pattern that occurs when people scan through a web page.

Placement of ads and your most valuable links can be optimized given the “F-shape” pattern, and sometimes an upside down “L-shape” or “E-shape” pattern.

It makes you wonder if using a right-hand navigation bar is better or worse…as you’re going against the learned behavior most people use when scanning a web page.
