This email that I just got seems relevant to the current thread on
recruiters. I'm sure most of you receive these already, but for
those of you that don't, I get these cold call emails from
recruiters every other day or so ... <br>
<br>
I notice they are starting to mention github more and more, but the
recruiter gets my name wrong ... makes me switch off immediately ...<br>

across your profile on a github and was really impressed how
passionate you are about development. I wanted to speak with
you regarding some permanent ruby opportunities in London. I
have attached some job descriptions above with some short

the majority of them are ruby positions, they will also give

interest you. A few of them are already using Amazon AWS and
noSQL databases, most notably Cassandra and MongoDB.<u></u><u></u></span></p>
