NYCPHP Meetup

[Frank Wong]

I wanted to survey what people think is the fair market rate per hour 
for PHP/MySQL or ASP.NET development.  I just had a conversation with a 
friend in San Francisco and he said that it is not uncommon to be 
offered $30/hr for ASP.NET work even by large companies like Schwab, 
SBC, Intel, etc.  For some background, he is a very experience developer 
with 10 years under his belt.  So we are not talking entry level or 
junior developer here.  Is that about the same type of rates expected 
here in NYC?
