This past week, we rolled a whole new set of statistics out for web resumes.

Basically, it's everything you could dream of for keeping track of who, what and how people are viewing your online resume. We'll be adding a few more reports to the selection soon (like search terms), but the new 8 or so options should give people something to chew on for a bit. If there's anything in particular your looking for, drop us a note and we'll add it in. The engine was the work, dropping a new report in on a whim - eh.. not a problem ;)

Still cooking up those big changes in the kitchen. The first batch of cookies will hopefully be done in a week or two, the next one is a full on cake though, and will probably take a bit more time. Technology wise, we're pretty much all wrapped up. We're working on the work flow now though, which in our minds, is the most important part. Gotta keep that usability bar high ;)

We're working out of Hollywood, FL the next couple of days and attending (when we can.. damn you Steve Jobs!) the ERExpo. If you are in attendance and would like to say hey, fire me an email at alex at emurse.com. We love meeting with and talking with our users!

I just had the pleasure of sitting (well, standing) in on Shally Steckerl's presentation, "From Sourcing to Cold Calling, Recruiting the best Passive Talent." Shally's the author of a tremendous resource guide called Electronic Recruiting 101. This type of presentation is the reason we came down today. For us, we view the job hunt as a continual process that is, in fact, mainly passive. Nobody wants to turn down a great opportunity when it knocks. Our users are always able to have their most updated resume, formatted, and ready to go at a moments notice. Shally's presentation noted just how easy it is to find folks using Google and MSN. There are more and more web resumes every day.

Emurse is still going strong, amazing us more by the second. The word of mouth on this project is incredible, almost all of our growth has been completely organic. In the last 60 days, we've blown past our year end goals and still haven't finished implementing the most viral aspects of the site (some announced, most not announced ;). Once we get a few more of the pieces in, the march towards critical mass can officially begin. We've become relatively known on the web2.0 circuit, but its the non-techies that we're ultimately after.

We've been pretty silent on it all, as we're preparing a pretty major release. We're going to start breaking it up into smaller, more digestible components to get it all out the gate. Expect really neat things soon, some you can probably guess, but as always, there will be at least a few surprises ;)
