Belated congratulations, and many thanks for going to all this trouble for a bunch of people that you've never met.
I can't offer much advice on employment-- my expertise is limited to small custom databases, and my skill set is kinda out of date, and I've just learned that I may be unemployed myself within a few months.
I got started with Manpower. They managed to get me a database programming gig, and it led to my first full-time job. But if you can type, and if you can do word processing or data entry, a temp service will keep food on the table, and it may be your foot in the door.
Of course, I quit my first full-time job two years later, after it gave me a minor nervous breakdown. But that's another story

Anyways, I do hope you can keep this site going. It looks like the message board has just had a growth spurt in the past week or two, while I was away.
