RE: [OT] looking for salary surveys
Matt, Yup :) The only thing I miss about independent consulting is the $$. Of course once I average in the taxes, health insurance, disability, not having to do my own marketing, etc. I figure I came out about even, in fact in my case a little above even as I moved from the DC area to Atlanta. In any case there are arguments for or against independent consulting.

Re: [OT] looking for salary surveys
In Denver, the full-time rates vary from around $60K year to $100K. It's pretty tough to find the $100/year jobs, and most average in the 80s-90s for senior developers. For Contractors, the sky's the limit, but most range from $45/hour (junior developers) to $90/hour. Again, senior developers get in the 80s (per hour). So I ask, why would you want to be a full-time employee when you could make twice as much as a contractor. ;-) Just kidding, I know there's lots of reasons to be a full-time employee over contracting.
