Needed: A New IT Employment Model

Needed: A New IT Employment Model - O'Reilly Broadcast: "The news on the web is not likely to give a lot of holiday cheer to anyone - Google announcing that they were ending the contracts of some 10,000 part time and contract employees, Sun reducing their force by nearly 6,000, Yahoo 'trimming' 1,000.
