I'm a contractor simply due to the fact that as a programmer you quickly seem to hit a salary cap after a few years unless you want to go into management and get more hands off. I love coding and doing sysadmin stuff and as long as the contracts are there it pays SOO much more once you have a few years experience under your belt. Fortunately you can make a good living as a contractor in the bay area doing open source coding and linux sysadmin.
Slashdot Mirror
I read slashdot through avantgo all the time. Just create your own avantgo channel and have it sync to http://slashdot.org/palm It works great!
I use Kora and it's not bad...
