BTW even a cursory search on Dice.com or a talk with any reputable
Technical Recruitment professional will show you that the average
full-time salary for a programmer, of any type, in NYC, is about 90K a year.
This calculates out to, yep, about $50 an hour...including the cost of
benefits, and assuming the full-timers have a workweek closer to 50
hours per week (which most do).

Ed,
I've been a programmer in NYC for almost 13 years (maybe you assumed
otherwise because of my gender), I started out in 1998 making $50 an
hour, and I'm still making $50 an hour, and everyone else I know who
is a PHP programmer in NYC is making between $45-55 an hour as well
(over 20 other people that I personally know and have worked with).
It's great to talk about what "should be" or what "could be" but the
reality is, $50 an hour.

I think we are talking about 2 different things here, one is
programming and
the other is designing, Krista programmers in NYC make a lot more
then $50
per hour, depending on your skill set and what language you program
in. For
design work yes $50 per hour is about right for simple design work
and even
that is in the lower end, and that can vary depending on the sort of
design,
if it involves some sort of specialize CSS and or flash etc. then it
goes
up.
