What's hot right now, Visual Basic, Java or Web Development?

i prefer the combination of java and web development.

What's hot right now, Visual Basic, Java or Web Development?
Any field can be hot for you, if you become the master of that. Its true if you learn Java and web development then its good, but if you can do quality works with VB then it will also be hot, coz there is always need of quality works...
Reply:I would have to say Java and Web Development are hot. The field is crowded with VB developers.
Reply:I agree that all of them are pretty hot right now, and if you are really good at any language, chances are you will easily find a job. I would suggest thinking about what you like to do the most - whether it is hard core coding, or more design and layout stuff. If you are more into the hardcore stuff, then I would learn Java, VB, or C#. If you are more interested in doing web stuff, I would probably focus more on PHP, JavaScript, ASP, or other similar languages. If you are more interested in the design and appearance, you may want to pick up Flash programming. Or, if you are total geek (like me) and don't care to ever see humans (jk), you could even pick up database programming, like SQL, and flavors of it like PL/SQL, or T-SQL. The programming field is getting pretty hot again - I get multiple calls and emails every week on my resume' on CareerBuilder.
Reply:Out of those 3 it has to be Java. VB isn't used in too many professional applications and Web Development is actually done a lot of the time in Java. Also, the nice thing about Java is that once you learn it it's like knowing 3 languages. Anyone who understands Java should be able to transition back to C, C++, or C# without much trouble.
