Technologies in Demand

[VisualDeveloper]

What technologies do you people think are in demand at the moment, and what languages/technologies are looking hot for the future?

The way I see it .NET, Java and XML are the most promising ones.

To be honest I dont think Java looks all that great for the future. .NET seems to be going pretty good and should gain even more popularity as it gooes, unless MS does something stupid with it.

As for whats currently in demand Id say it depends on the company, but C/C++ still seems to remain a language that you should know. I dont see it going away any time soon either.

Wyrd took the words right out of my mouth.

Here in my country theres a big demand on Java programers. Its very used on serve-side apps, banks and every thing that needs high security.
But its good to know that .NET is going well in the US, cause what goes well there will end up doing it here too.

Java, especially J2EE is well in demand.

The whole EAI Business.
