July 25, 2007
If you are looking for a job as a Flash developer or in IT in general you might find this little application handy. I initially created it for myself with Flash and MDM Zinc but I thought that some of you might find it useful. It is lighter than a google gadget and does the job nicely. It will return by default any contract position in the UK advertised on jobserve during the last 24 hours associated with the keyword "actionscript" but you can create your own search on jobserve and enter your own RSS link in the application. [download now] |
