			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The economic downturn is really forcing some of the unemployed to become creative in their hunt for a new position.  Take Jobless Joe, aka Zack Metzner for example.  He flipped the coin on his own stint with unemployment and created <a title="JoblessJoe - Optimistic Jobseeker Resource" href="http://www.joblessjoe.com">Joblessjoe.com</a>, a supportive community for those out of work.  The site offers resume feedback, discussions and resources for job seekers. It’s all served with a thread of enthusiasm and a nose turned up at the media’s strict attention on the negative.   It’s a refreshing example of how one person’s choice to have an optimistic perspective can be infectious.</p>
<p><span id="more-548"></span><br />
Other sites like <a title="helpiwaslaidoff.com" href="htttp://www.helpiwaslaidoff.com">HelpIWasLaidOff.com</a> also offer a community resource for jobseekers, promoting a “help you, help yourself” approach.  We think these sites deliver a healthy measure of buoyancy in the morale department for those out of work.  Folks who have grown weary from swimming in the deep end of the unemployment pool may find refuge in these new supportive online communities.  We’re also really proud to see such creative optimism sprout right out of Austin, Texas!</p>
