We've also seen it (as a python web dev company) increase quite a bit in the web field. Another big area I keep seeing python jobs advertised are in the financial services industry. Just as engineers used fortran and business people used cobol, I think financial services are using python for a good language to write calculations/simulations of financial models. -Matt -- Matt Hamilton ma...@netsight.co.uk Netsight Internet Solutions, Ltd.
