I took the alternative approach of auto-generating my resume from my code https://plus.google.com/104659641866805928410/posts/UeNDaZhE...

Has it scored you any jobs or interviews yet?

Yes/No (it's been 2 weeks, only a couple of email enquiries/telephone interviews).

I've got no job experience and no college education so it's an uphill struggle. I'm trying to innovate with the resume to overcome that (I can code/write etc, but don't have the standard papers/references).

Okay, well at least you're trying something new. That should get some attention. Good luck!
