Just for example, I made a webpage that I can submit an email address, a job title and a job type to. The webpage submits the data to a database. Every 5 minutes, a cron job wakes up and emails an appropriate resume and cover letter to the recipient based on the job type. I use the perl MIME::Lite modules to insert the name and job title into the email. I've got an html and text version of the emails, and it attaches a PDF of my resume to the email. All I do is submit an email address, the title and click on the job type, and I can mass-bomb the job market in a short while each morning. I'm thinking about putting together a followup button. :)
