fyi - example of the tech/startup bubble in Silicon Valley


Silicon Valley is desperate for designers
http://money.cnn.com/2012/04/05/technology/startups/designers/index.htm

summary - good quality designers hard to find, so much so that wages/salary is up,
and companies buy other companies for their talent ( "acq-hires" - Acquisition Hires ) 
still not enough quality people.

( note, there are actually a number of humorous comments with regards to the picture... in the reader comment section :)

note while this is not in the story above, the hiring companies are not just 

competing against other companies but also
competing against their potential hires' OWN startups. 

thanks
