Silicon Valley Tech Industry Recovery?

I've read recent reports that unemployment in Silicon Valley is at 8 percent. Sounds pretty dismal.

But it looks like Yahoo! is starting to hire again. If you search our database, you'll see approximately 40 engineering headcount. I didn't check other positions, but I think the rest of the company is growing, too.

And Google, a much smaller company, has 24 engineering and 15 ops positions open.
