Why not check out education? I've worked at a Boston-area uni for the last two years, and we've doubled our IT staff since I started (the oracle db team alone tripled in the last year).
For the last year I've heard about the lack of jobs, and while I've seen it myself from talking to people and seaching around monster/hotjobs/dice/etc, education seems to always be hiring. For instance, since you're searching for Boston, why not check out Harvard? I just did a search and they have 25-30 IT jobs currently open, 3/4 of which were posted in the last 3 months.
