I don't usually pick nits, but in the Bay Area, EBay refers to the
area East of San Francisco bay, including cities such as Oakland,
Fremont, and Milpitas. Job openings in all these areas are numerous.
I agree with Chris Thiessen about job postings. The many off-topic
postings are far more intrusive.
