I've seen the "technology section is disappearing" refrain from many a major newspaper this year.

I'm not debating at all that IT jobs have almost disappeared, or so it seems. I was just stating that Dice.com is not a good place to visit to determine stats.

While I was unemployeed this summer I was going weeks, if not months at a time without a call, let alone an interview. I too was used to getting at minimum one call a week as soon as my resume hit the streets.

It's obvious that the current state of the economy is affecting them. I've seen discussions about them reposting ads from many months ago, or making up ads. I've not heard or seen this practice from other sites. So to get a could count of stats I would gather them from another site.
