This is an article from [[Slashdot]] in which a guy asks the question Now that I’ve lost my job, what skills should I learn in the hi-tech world..

Given that this also just happened to me, I think I’ll ready all the responses (maybe I’ll find some leads). In any case,

I got many of the skill the replies mention, and I should be able to learn the other’s fairly rapidly.

So, if you’re hiring and you need a very experienced C++/OO developer, I’m your guy. Take a look at my “Resume: Michael D. Carney” for more information.
