I was in the same position as you -- working at a boring job and looking for something more interesting. I moved to London and did contracting for a few years. Although you can still end up with boring jobs, at least you get to change jobs more often, and you get paid a lot more. jobserve.com is a good place to find contract jobs. There's also a lot of permanent jobs at startups listed on jobserve.
