As it often happened in developers life, as soon as you become an expert in something, the life throws you a new project which requires you to learn brand new languages, platforms, frameworks, technologies, etc… Suddenly your work day routine changes from 80% coding and 20% research to 99% of learning and researching.
Only six month ago I started working with Silverlight. We had some fun playing with new power tool, we’ve built the a series of prototypes… and that was the end of Silverlight journey.
New mission is Google App Engine. Our language of choice is Java. My experience with Java - none. So far looking at zillions of Java frameworks makes me dizzy. After spending 2 days on learning Struts 2 I’ve realized that the learning curve is expected to be very deep. I’m diving in… - wish me good luck.
