Hey Everyone,
It's been a while since I've blogged at all as there have been quite a few things going on lately. First off, the JawberDoo.com site is almost complete. The basic jawb searching is working and allows you to search by Jawb Industry, Jawb Category, Jawb Occupation,Jawb Requirements, and by the jawb location distance from a zip code. Something that Monster is not capable of, plus we don't have all the widgets that slow the site down to a crawl. After I rework some of the jawb provider pages and ensure that everything else is still working, we'll roll out the grand opening.
The major work of late has been for the BeHeard.com site. We are currently in talks with the news provider for the site to work out mutually beneficial options. If all goes well, we'll be providing a WCF 3.51 open source library to access the providers news API from a .NET application. In return, we are seeking a free subscription to their news services. We've already built the library, we just need to work out the details. The development of this site will be going full speed in the next couple of weeks.
Also, I have been neglecting the .NET Tweeks blog, which is going to change soon. Once things quiet down a bit, I'll have plenty of content for the blog. The first release of JawberDoo.com will be in production and it will be the basis for several posts. The work on BeHeard.com will contribute to posts on WCF, so there is quite a lot to blog about.
Take it easy,
Bill Bosacker
