I decided to do an unscientific quick look at contract jobs in
Texas by scanning site:
http://www.texas.computerjobs.com.
It does not represent the number of jobs in texas but the number
of times the skill was found in job requests.
Results:
Requests Language
855 Java
801 Visual Basic
687 HTML
677 ASP
453 JavaScript
227 VBScript
99 Cold Fusion
98 PowerBuilder
74 Cobol
40 CICS
34 Oracle Developer 2000
25 FoxPro
Microsoft marketing "is indeed powerful as the emperor has forseen".
Lack of Microsoft marketing is also powerful as shown by the FoxPro
number! With VB7 out in a year, VFP will complete it's fade to black.
