Neekanee (http://www.neekanee.com) - it's a job search engine that scrapes jobs directly from company websites. Everything is written in Python/Django. Right now it scrapes jobs from around 1100 different companies and has features I had always wished were available in other job search engines: ability to filter by company size, type of company (.org, .gov, ...), vacation time, etc.

Very cool. Any chance you have an API? I just started a site to show Django jobs in NC [http://djangonc.com/] and am looking for places to get data.
I don't have an API, but since you're not the first person to ask about this perhaps I'll look into adding one.
I'm impressed. I have been thinking about doing the same thing, mainly just for myself to search job..lol

How long did it take you do build this?

Very cool, but it's not obvious how to submit a site for crawling.
You're right - I should make it clearer for companies that wish to be included in the listings. I saw your company listed in your profile - I'll work on adding it. Thanks for the feedback!
