Things are definitely picking up. Dure to: first, the stock markets and positive economic reports. Secondly, it's spring and the job market normally seeks an increase in activity at this time.
From my perspective: Phone calls are up since last Tue/Wed. Have been averaging 2 phone calls per day now. Also, recruiters (corporate and headhunters) are starting to call.
It's not great - but it is an improvement.

Regarding the H1B mess. Who knows? There are
alot of Americans looking for work right now. I went to job fairs last week here in Denver and they were totally swamped.
A good many defense projects comming down the pike. I guess there is a race to get satellites in orbit. Most defense companies can only hire US-Citizens. Also, alot of the projects deal with C/C++.

Just my two cents.
