[AccessD] Getting Desperate - Apologies for the OT message

Hi All:

This among many other similar questions would seem to point to a members
page(s) on the DBA site. I am only a single member on the executive (web
janitor) and there was a lot of focus on the DBA conference preparation and
subsequent wind down.  I think setting something up like that would be a
great idea and it could not come sooner...and it seems like a great fall
project.

The more comments the better.

HTH
Jim

Wasn't there talk about a Member's Page?  With your resume and a short
self-written bio?

Btw, I have been looking for work (new clients, new work from current
clients, or a salaried position) for about 17 months now.

...its neither crass nor off-topic ...read the netiquette if you wish
but
sharing and friendship are the constants that make this list far better
than
others we all are aware of ...and using the list to look for work is
both
highly relevant and welcome ...as for work itself, its been slow here
for
months now ...if not for a couple of steady clients, it might well be me
writing your post instead.

...you might consider posting your resume as well or a link to it
...would
make referrals easier :)

birth,
his shining golden opportunity -- to every man his right to live, to
work,
to be himself, to become whatever his manhood and his vision can combine
to
make him -- this, seeker, is the promise of America.
