sabe do que fala :-)

> Some IT skills, while clearly not dead yet, are certainly being put out to
> pasture. For example, the once-hot fourth-generation programming language
> PowerBuilder is now largely forgotten by many employers. Foote Partners CEO
> David Foote says PowerBuilder is one of several programming languages in
> long-term decline, including Hewlett-Packard's variant on the Unix language,
> HP-UX, Perl, and C. IT workers skilled in these declining languages have
> seen their pay levels drop by 11 percent or more in the past 12 months,
> according to Foote Partners' latest survey. Foote says C is not going to go
> away because it is widely used in embedded devices, but there is no need for
> businesses to have someone write applications in C. Even some newer IT
> skills are already finding themselves less and less in demand. For example,
> Wireless Markup Language (WML), which became popular about eight years ago
> as a way of creating mobile Internet sites that could be viewed by early
> mobile browsers, is already in decline. Over the last 12 months, as mobile
> devices continue to become more powerful, the market value of WML skills has
> dropped 12.5 percent. Another popular skill that is fading away is Novell
> Netware, which has since been overwhelmed by the rapid rise of Microsoft
> Windows, which comes with built-in networking. Foote says that demand for
> Microsoft and open source skills are on long-term upward trends, and notes
> that year-on-year comparisons can be influenced by short-term supply trends.
