Hiring
I mentioned this a London.pm last week but Reading Room are hiring. Perl, database, Linux/Unix, designers, HTML slaves, producers, project managers. If you are "polishing up your portfolio site" right now and you want to work somewhere manic, challenging and where you get to do lots of neat stuff under your own steam, mail me a CV. Also, if you know anyone good who got laid (off) recently, let me know.

Also interested in project managers/producers and good designers/HTML slaves. If you know anyone good who is know, um, polishing up their portfolio, I'd love to hear from them. Ta, Dave
