    Can't wait for Mondays


    From the man who brought you .NET Rocks! comes another great reason the internet is what it is, Mondays.  Read all about it here, and make sure you stay tuned for more info!  While you're reading, add some suggestions for a tagline for the show.  And don't try to copy any of mine

     

     This is gonna be big, stay tuned and you can tell all your friends in a few years that <oldManVoice> arragghhh, I remember tuning into the first few episodes of 'Mondays', those were the days</oldManVoice>

     

    Really big. 

     

    I mean it, BIG.

     

    Stay tuned. 

     

    You'll hate yourself forever if you don't.

     

    Think of all the $$$ you'll save in therapy if you do. 

     

    Really big.

    Endangered species: US programmers


    From USAToday: Say goodbye to the American software programmer. Once the symbols of hope as the nation shifted from manufacturing to service jobs, programmers today are an endangered species. They face a challenge similar to that which shrank the ranks of steelworkers and autoworkers a quarter century ago: competition from foreigners. Some experts think they'll become extinct within the next few years, forced into unemployment or new careers by a combination of offshoring of their work to India and other low-wage countries and the arrival of skilled immigrants taking their jobs. Here's the full article: http://www.usatoday.com/tech/techinvestor/industry/2004-10-14-programming-jobs_x.htm
