I have been asking a few “raise your hand” questions at the MSDN events we are currently delivering in various parts of the UK. I thought they would be worth sharing.

• What language do you code in?
  • C# – around 60%
  • VB – around 40%
  • Something else (normally C++) – one or two folks
• Do you subscribe to the MSDN Flash?
  • Yes – around 60% Good stuff – but 100% should be about right :-)
• Do you listen to podcasts?
  • Yes – around 40% Wow. We all commute too much!
• Do you use an ORM currently in your project
  • Yes – around 5% This is low. This is very low. This will change significantly over the coming years….
