I like Perl. I am doing my own non-that-plain-stupid-website projects in Perl (for plain websites i am using PHP+Drupal). But I have no projects-for-cash involving Perl at all - looks like nobody is doing it today. And this means I have no real-world experience too. That's bad.
But I still love this language and will continue do own stuff with it. =)
- Jeema3000 16y agoThis seems to be a common misconception, but it's still very much a part of the corporate and business landscape. Do some keyword searches on a job search engine - you'll see what I mean...
- hippich 16y agoI started to earn bucks for living doing PHP development. In the beginning I tried to work as perl dev, but quickly realized that wordpress and drupal for freelance is much easier since there so much projects. And even with huge competition with indian/pakistan $5/hr devs, I was able to keep my rate at $50/hr.. Now corporate - probably, but I was doing freelancing work, not full time employee. Nor I had any product to sell to corps (this is what I want to try tho eventually).
