Comments from the Editor I just received the November 16th issue of Computerworld magazine. I do still get a number of paper magazines. They are great to skim through when you don't have a computer with you, or don't feel like using your phone to dig through web sites. In this issue of Computerworld, they have their 23rd annual Salary Survey results for 2009. There are a few tidbits pulled from the survey that you might find interesting: Of course, there are a lot of other stats in the salary survey report. Overall, the salary survey is an indicator that 2009 was not the year to complain about not getting a raise. Let's hope 2010 is a different story.
Until next week...
Brad!
