I can't believe I've never heard of this thing. I decided to give it a try and went to see what the Wayback Machine had for the Internet Radio company I co-founded, theDial.com. To my astonishment, it had a bunch of our old content [here]. It doesn't have everything though. When it spiders the site, it doesn't appear to load some of the flash and JavaScript mouseovers, but I can live with that. |
H1-B visas have been receiving extra scrutiny as of late. The current economic downturn has resulted in an all-time high unemployment rate for Electrical Engineers and other knowledge workers. A good number of jobs in this area are filled by foreign workers. ArsTechnica points to the story here. The US government has chosen not to act until 2003. That is a wise stance considering the reactionary nature of the issue. Of course, it wouldn't hurt to tie the number of H1-B visas allowed in a given year to the employment rate in affected industries. |
