Looking for a job in the software industry?

I'm not, but I stumbled upon a really nice job board on a well-known blog I read: Joel on Software. I've noticed several job openings around Madison, as well as regional cities such as Milwaukee, St. Paul, and Chicago.

The job board is simple to use and contains RSS feeds. Take a look!

Are there any other job boards/sites that you'd recommend?
