I hate the way everything seems to be moving towards applications running in a browser.
It sounds ridiculous "application in a browser".
Thats not to say it shouldn't be done, but for pete's sake, why the hell do we need everything running over one port and one protocol which was originally designed for the sole purpose of transferring hypertext.

I hate to wake you from your dreams - but you are most certainly wrong.
There will be a lot of scribble in browsers to make a GUI for background processes - but the majority of application will never run in a browser - and performance is the least of the many reasons.
Sure - technologies originaly derived from browsers (like Java or .NET) will be the focus of GUI development. But almost all applications will run without the browser, and the logic will be stand alone.
My opinions may have changed, but not the fact that I am right.

Thankfully, I am mostly involved in the backend/logic side of things. I don't have to deal too much with UI coding.

I aggree, I think it will become a complete circle, everything will be running as native apps on the ddesktop, the intrernet will just be merely a network connection either in LAN or WAN.

Perhaps because everyone knows how to write native windows apps by now ?

LOL - no, but from a magazines POV, it would seem more likely that they've covered most bases already and so are seeking to show people new stuff, which, even if they don't use it, is more likely to sell mags IMO.

phew, I almost thought you are going to tell next that all the questions in the VC++ forum are just part of the normal development process of professional developers
Yeah, its like any other journalism, news sell. And it does not matter how silly or useless it is as long as it is new.

Maybe I'm not right, but I've got the hunch a statistically significant amount of people are working in Java-based services, even among CP folks. "Unix based apps" seems too broad an option for this (and strictly speaking Java-based services are not tied to Unix after all).

That's what the 'other' box is for 
There's probably a dozen other platforms or technologies I could have added but I wanted to concentrate on what CodeProject could offer.

HEEEEELLLP JAVAAA !!!
I think java is not really that usefull, when you compare it to the .NET webservices model. Way to much lines of code and configuration files 
I stick to .NET webservices Although they don't run on unix machines.

Well, with Mono they have a good check of them trasportable. I even saw a Jabber API come out that is written in C# on Linux and Windows.
They are getting there as long as SCO stays out of it.

Only one category for native Windows applications?
And all the rest are web-related?

The survey is about the platform, so to speak, not about whether you are writing games or numerical modelling apps etc. I figured it would be interesting to see who was using .NET, how many were still doing COM and whether anyone was actually using ATL Server.

I figured that out after looking at the survey entries a little more. The "native Windows applications" choice sortof corresponds to "not using .NET", while the others refer to specific types of applications supported by .NET technologies.
Sorry if I sounded like I was grumbling . Unfortunately, with the stuff I work on (industrial process control), there is no need for me to use the .NET stuff <insert envy here>.
