Signs a Recession has hit the Internet

There is a great post on Command Line Idiot that has a list of twelve signs that a recession has hit the Internet and since it made me laugh, I thought I should give it a nod on my blog.

My favourites from the list:

  • Digg.com moves their server over to Dreamhost
  • You hire a PHP Developer for $12 an hour through elance.com, and it turns out to be Matt Mullenweg

I have already heard from a few different sources that they think the worst is already over when it comes to the economy, but I am definitely taking a wait and see approach. I don’t think we’ve hit the worst of it yet, especially if the rising gas prices are any indication.

Here’s hoping that things get better with regards to the economy. I need the Canadian dollar not to be so strong so my converted from US dollars pay equates to more perceived buying power.
