It's beginning to seem like one of those good news / bad news jokes.  I've been running the Nonprofit Tech Jobs email distribution list for about six years, and it's getting to be more than I can handle.  I'm glad that there are lots of jobs out there in our field, and that I'm busy enough with paying clients to feel pressed for time - but I'm feeling chronically nervous and guilty about the backlog of job announcements that I should be posting to the list.

I need some help tracking the job announcements and posting them.  Sometimes it's good to ask for help, and to share responsibility with colleagues.

I hereby declare that I'm on the lookout for a person (or persons) who would be willing to harvest nonprofit tech job announcements from some (or all) of the following online sources:

Riders-News
Riders-Talk
Riders-Tech

The format for announcements posted to the list is really quite simple, and they can be submitted as plain text emails by sending them to nonprofit_tech_jobs (at) yahoogroups (dot) com .

The basic idea here is that everyone in the nptech sector benefits when prospective employees and prospective employers are efficiently matched.  We talk a lot about social capital, social networking, and using online tools to increase our effectiveness.  This is a simple but powerful way to put those ideas to work in service of the community.  Moreover, it's fun; for that reason alone, I'd continue to monopolize it, if I only I had enough time.

Any volunteers?



UPDATE

I'm so delighted and relieved by the news that N-TEN has created an online job forum and an aggregation of other nonprofit job feeds!  N-TEN is the ideal clearinghouse, and I'm so glad that the good folks there are taking this on.  When I saw the announcement, I gave them a call, to talk about how we can consolidate the Nonprofit Tech Jobs email list resources with the N-TEN jobs forum.  I can't believe that N-TEN didn't ask me about doing this when they started their planning!
