It depends what you're developing IMHO.
I could care less about the sites I'm writing for and what they
do. What _is_ important is honing your skills and the techniques you
use. These are what I feel increase my value: the ability to do
whatever job better and faster.
I'm not likely to want to go out and do a ferry booking B2C site on my
own in the very near future...however, using the Template Toolkit as a
mod_perl handler is WAY up the list of Good Things.
HTH,
