Just curious, to know if anyone but me has been seeing a lot of consulting work popup where companies are either moving off PHP and onto Java, or vise versa? Seems like out of the last 10 projects or so I've worked on, it's a move to/from between PHP & Java. In my case it's usually some random company (typically either from india or someone with a thick indian accent) calling off my dice profile and asking me to be a local POC for them for a platform move like that. /* PLUG: http://plug.org, #utah on irc.freenode.net Unsubscribe: http://plug.org/mailman/options/plug Don't fear the penguin. */
