Bruce- It all depends on where you want to go next with your career and for how long. There appears to be plenty of work, especially government work, that uses CF and/or PHP, which are both technologies you mentioned being familiar with. This is likely to continue for the foreseeable future. Meaning - you are likely to find jobs listed given your existing skill sets. Particularly if you are able to bring your military experience to bear, which certain jobs look for. If I were to chose a technology to learn entirely outside the scope of what you know I'd pick something either in mobile (smartphone) apps, or something like Ruby on Rails. This is personal preference and what I'd aim for next given your background. I know you aren't all that close to Atlanta, but you also aren't all that far away. If you ever want to have lunch (or beers) sometime shoot me an email. I'm always happy to talk shop. -Cameron ... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/message.cfm/messageid:364824 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/unsubscribe.cfm
