Evening - I don't think there's a category here for what I do... I'm a staffing researcher, have been for about 8 years. I search the web for potential candidates for job openings. Sometimes this takes me into some of the dark corners of the internet, but guaranteed the kind of work I do would be considered child's play by most of you I absolutely love what I do though and some of the most fun assignments I've taken on have involved some pretty weird web search techniques.

At any rate, I stumbled across this site recently and am quite intrigued. I did want to ask if anyone here has done public speaking, because I program 2 conferences a year for other staffing researchers, and I think someone with an ethical hacking background might be of great interest for our conference attendees. Others like me would probably enjoy someone who could share some little-known searching techniques, Boolean queries, and/or ways to ethically manipulate social networks or search engines to get more/better results.

I really wasn't sure where to place this inquiry, so I hope this will do for now. Thanks and I'm looking forward to learning some interesting stuff here.

Thanks Bill - the one I am working on right now is going to be held in DC at the end of September. The next one I don't have specific dates/times for yet, but is most likely going to be in NYC this coming spring. Hope that helps!
