I like the idea, but I disagree that this is a pleasant interface.
There's a lot of repetition -- maybe it's just me, but I'd rather have the jobs separated by Fulltime/Freelancer first and then by month, so you'd only have two tabs at the left with a list of months under that tab.
I also like the Regex search so I can do some complex searches, but I wish there was some basic functions built in -- Like pulling out City/State when applicable.
Really useful, any plans on adding RSS/Atom feed? I saw it's implemented in JavaScript and I don't know if there's an easy way to do such thing. Good job.
No-one else has pointed this out yet, apparently, but I just got my mind blown by one little UI decision -- clicking toward either the upper or lower part of the content body, it scrolls to that direction. Wonderful, and very impressive. So obvious, and yet so brilliant.
It doesn't appear to be based on where you click on the page. It's whether you click on a post/listing. Without looking at the code, it probably performs a jquery scrollTo on click of any listing.
Not to be that guy, but a lot of people have been requesting features such as being able to search by city, intern/remote and all that.
My friend & I built http://supzu.cc earlier this month and it has most of these features. Maybe that can scratch some people's itch.
It's missing a lot of stuff that this wonderful version has such as support for freelancers among other things. We posted it when we made it but it never got much attention so there's obviously a reason for that :).
I found it slightly annoying that each of my clicks automatically scrolled through the posts. This included any middle-clicks used to open a link in a new tab.
good idea. I think it really needs a built-in filter to exclude all the SEEKING WORK posts though because job hunters (most users) have no desire to see those.

Matches a City, SThttp://jobs.usethesource.com/

On the iphone, you can use a two-finger drag to scroll.
I built one last month for the Freelancing thread: http://hnfreelancer.zacharytong.com/

Amazing how an idea can be implemented by a bunch of different folks all at the same time.
