The weight in ounces of the Sunday San Jose Mercury News Classifieds is a
valid measure of economic activity. At one point it was around 24 pages for
IT jobs but it recently has been down to 1-2 pages.
A few years ago, despite the positive outlook for careers in computer
science, students majoring in computer science was down because of the geek
stigma. The result was a shortage in IT workers. Then came the Internet
bubble and students began jumping onto the computer science bandwagon. So...
to ensure demand for our services we should discourage student enrollment in
the computer sciences by playing up the geek, propeller-head thing. :-)
Got pocket protector?

Another sign of the times is that ITI is closing its US schools.
For those who don't know - it is a computer training school. They started
years
ago as a school in Atlantic Canada offering a 10 month course. Later they
expanded to few Canadian and US cities. Last year they advertised on TV and
radio about 400,000 unfilled positions in e-commerce etc. and
offered-commerce
training. Yesterday I have heard that they are scaling back...
