Joomla makes the top 10 hottest freelance skillsPosted by: Jen Kramer on Jul 15, 2009  |

Great news for Joomla developers! Elance, a site putting clients in touch with freelancers, says that the 8th most popular freelance skill out there is Joomla. PHP came in at #1, MySQL at #4, and WordPress and #10.
I can certainly confirm this based on how many calls for help we've gotten lately here at 4Web. We're taking projects with a September start right now -- in this economy!

The Times article link seems to have gone dead, although I can find it with their search tool--and that link is dead too. But it seems to have been published widely...http://www.salon.com/tech/giga_om/web_life/2009/07/14/elance_hot_100_good_news_for_designers/index.html
Is this really good news?
Elance has always seemed to be full of the cheapskate bonehead clients you blogged about earlier. They're typically paying $5-20/hr. or sub-$500-1000 gigs for misguided projects. Perfect synergy with 3rd world labor pools.
I guess the brightest spin you can put on it is, get-rich-quick schemers in the overdeveloped world are funding economic development in the developing world.
