Part of your career's intellectual portfolio should include regular learning. Whether you're in the language of the year (LOTY) or the technology of the year (TOTY) club, it's time to have something in mind for the coming year. Regular deposits in the account of you is the only way to build up a nest egg. Don't let the current crisis at work keep you from starting today. There will always be crisis of the week. Start now or you won't.
Having said that, let me share an announcement with you. A friend of mine, and former co-worker, Kevin Smith has a public Erlang class coming up soon. Erlang is a great candidate for your LOTY because it teaches you a new way to think about programming. And it's ideally suited to take advantage of new technologies like multiple core computers and cloud computing.
Hands-On Erlang
Enjoy!
