This is what I think
Myth : there is a downfall of Java web based technologies like JSP, Servlets,
XML ???
Fact :The number of organizations moving towards the Java platform is contantly
increasing .Our company was
primarily a MS shop , recently a decision was made to move to the Java platform
across the board , its a fortune 500
company with offices in more than 70 countries.
The companies adopting XML is growing rapidly , the number of products
that use XML technology is unbelievable.
A year ago there were a handful of XML editors , style sheet editors and parsers
,today you can find more than 50 editors.
Myth : No Java projects and the Java demand is down
Fact : Considering some changes in economy , total no of layoffs and closing of
a lot of dot coms has affected
the job market , but that is all sectors and all technologies , its not just
"JAVA" people and projects that are affected.
There is still demand for good Java people , although the total demand in
numbers may be less than what it was a year ago
Myth : .Net and C# will overrule Java technology
Fact : .Net is in beta version 1 , it will move to beta version 2 and then to
production, which is anywhere between
6-12 months.It still has a lot of bugs.
I had the oppurtunity to attend a C# demo at a Microsoft Conference this week ,
C# has no advantage or additonal
features compared to Java , I have been working with java for more than a year ,
and I did'nt see anything that C#
had to offer which Java does not already do.
Microsoft is implementing try catch exception handling and concept of classes in
other .Net products, this says
for itself what affect Java has had on the Microsoft camp.

the .net camp has a lot to worry about, so I can see them trying to do
something like that. However, there are a lot of jobs for java engineers in
silicon valley. The problem is right now is that there are also alot of
engineers becuase of the massive layoffs.
