It could also reflect that job boards are becoming less and less useful for employers or job seekers. I recently went through a job hunt and enabling my resume on boards like Dice just resulted in a flood of irrelevant recruiter spam. I'm not being overly harsh here either. When I landed a job (a good one) it was through a posting on the Who's Hiring thread here on HN, and subsequent email/phone conversations and co-working time.
