woohoo, thanks! I'll start off:

Job type: software development/testing, web design, statistical analysis, or maybe publishing as a last resort. Hopefully something involving use of foreign language skills (Chinese or Japanese), though keep in mind I can't write either fluently at a professional level (especially not Japanese), only read.
Location: Boston metro, anything accessible on commuter rail or subway (preferably through South Station)
Relevant experience: 4 months in textbook publishing, 3 months in web development, 3 months in software development.

that's pretty good System Admin experience for someone that hasn't yet graduated. unfortunately i don't know anybody out in the midwest. but i'm sure your experience will make you competitive.
