What a waste of time it is to look through NYC tech posts. Move west your techie. It seems you either have boring consultancies looking for hired hands or Yahoo's talking a big game but holding nothing.
We found one posting for a PHP Web Developer who would want to work for a start-up magazine called StudentFilmMakers - we give it 6 months until it folds. Best of all they are offering $32K per year. In New York Frickin City? Get out of here.
We came across another mysterious start-up calledTemboo: "Temboo is a 3 year old well-funded company. " Then why is it still in stealth mode? What the hell is it? Stop botherin us Temboo.
Or what do we make of David Siegel: "My name is David Siegel. I helped build a number of Web 1.0 companies back in the 90s. Now I'm in New York City building the next generation of Internet companies. I have the funding and space and am putting teams together. One company is looking for a senior developer/architect to build a very high-volume consumer site. Think of it as a next-generation Friendster." Friendster? At least aspire to be MySpace.
