This is interesting, but the limitations become apparent with one of their example searches: http://tinyurl.com/qqnum This comparison shows "early stage" companies offering a higher salary than fortune XXX companies. However, these numbers don't seem to indicate total compensation, such as benefits and stock or options. Still, a cool use of search technology.
