    Seen this link in another forum, figured I'd share...not sure how accurate it is though... http://www.tiobe.com/index.php/content/paperinfo/tpci/index.html[^] Seems C# would have been a poor choice as it seems to be falling in popularity. :P Thankfully C/C++ and PHP are relatively high. :)

    I'm finding the only constant in software development is change it self.

        From the article: The ratings are based on the number of skilled engineers world-wide, courses and third party vendors.

                              Um...I think you're reading that backwards, not that I take these things in any way seriously but the graph shows pretty much the opposite of what you think about c# and c++. :)

                                  Haha...I think I did read that thing wrong... Although I don't think PHP will level off...it's a newbie language and makes writing applications for the Internet so easy anyone can do it... I can throw marbles at the keyboard and PHP will run and something will be output to the screen. :P For that reason, it will always attract new people, whereas Ruby, Python, C#, etc...have a much smaller target audience. If anything PHP might loose the occasional professional to one of those langauges as they further develop their programming skills. Seriously, PHP ain't going anywhere and I can't see it leveling off...unfortunately this popularity also means I compete for jobs with people who also read a book once for PHP and are now experts in AJAX/MySQL/PHP so the wages are really low. :P

                                        Seen this link in another forum, figured I'd share...not sure how accurate it is though... http://www.tiobe.com/index.php/content/paperinfo/tpci/index.html[^] Seems C# would have been a poor choice as it seems to be falling in popularity. :P Thankfully C/C++ and PHP are relatively high. :)

                                        I'm finding the only constant in software development is change it self.

                                        Maybe you should look a little closer http://www.tiobe.com/index.php/paperinfo/tpci/C_.html[^] http://www.tiobe.com/index.php/paperinfo/tpci/C__.html[^]

                                          I did read it totally backwards... I didn't look at any charts just that table...and the little red arrow pointing down told me it declined...how it declined I didn't bother reading cause I simply wasn't interested. :P Thank you for bringing this to light though, so at least I don't make a fool of myself on any other forums today. :P
