Wayne Osse and his team have just launched MapMyJobs that will help you find IT related jobs in the US. With a simple front end, the site allows you to search by keyword or location and jobs are then plotted on a compact Google Map pane. You can also do a click-to-start search from the US map to find specific location-based jobs. Jobs look to be mashed up from sites like SimplyHired, Indeed and other jobs sites. In addition to searching for jobs you can also save jobs that you are interested in and rate and view ratings for companies.
