I just put together a tool that aggregates developer jobs tweeted on twitter - you can see jobs by area and type.

The best part is that it also shows jobs that haven't made it to formal listings yet.

It's at http://www.jobquacks.com - regrettably I haven't built in support for mobile yet..

A similar web site is: http://jobstractor.com/ . Though I think I like yours better.

Thanks!

I didn't realize job tractors was out there when I made this. @meaydinli -- did you find the site useful at all? What would make it better?

[meaydinli]

Yes, it was useful. I actually found an opening somewhere. What would make it better? A couple of suggestions:

  - It defaults to Milwaukee. Maybe ask for a zip code?
  - I like that it loads more as you scroll down, but it also loads the same things so there are lots of repetitions.
  - No filter for android/ios/mobile
  - Highlight the words that I filter for; ex: If I choose Android, color the word Android in the page yellow.

Best of luck to you!

Thanks a ton for your thoughts and i'm really happy the tool helped you find an opening! To your points:

-I just added a mobile filter (includes all mobile dev) so take a look! hope this helps.

-highlighting filtered words is an awesome idea and it's now on my list.

-Obviously there are still some bugs in the geo-locating and scroll stuff - where are you located?

-I'd love to hear more about what kind of jobs you're looking for and why the opening you found was useful so I can understand how to make the tool better. If you have a second to respond here I'd really appreciate it, or you can tweet/email me @orrenkt/orrenkt at gmail
