Not sure if anyone has seen this already but NetTuts has just posted an article outlining the 10 most Sort After Skills In Web Development and to be honest I'm quite surprise at a few.
This is the list:
1. Framework knowledge
2. Widget development
3. Custom CMS themes
4. CMS Customizations and plugin development
5. PSD to XHTML services
6. Javascript Plugin creation
7. Facebook/MySpace applications
8. iPhone applications
9. Ecommerce integration
10. Flash and Actionscript Knowledge
The ones that surprise me most are Facebook/MySpace Applications and PSD to XHTML services.
Facebook/MySpace Applications - I honest can't believe that there is still a market for this given the huge huge amount of apps, for Facebook in particular, that are already floating about, most of which are pretty crap. I would think peoples time was better placed developing iPhone apps.
PSD to XHTML services - I didn't really think the market for this was big enough. Fair enough there are a fair few sites/companies out there that specialise in this but I didn't think their was enough call for it to put it up there in the 10 most desired skills.
Lastly one I'm quite shocked not to see is development of Google Android Applications. Given that the phone is weeks away from release, I expected that developers would jump right on that band waggon in the same way that iPhone developers have done.
Anyone got any thoughts on this?
