Hey Maggie,
I, for one, certainly HOPE that's the case! On a similar note, I was
called yesterday by a contracting agency asking about my current situation.
They said they were updating their list of possible tech writers in
response to what they perceived as an increase in the market. This was in
Austin, TX, but I HAVE noticed more positions coming across on Monster.com,
at least.
