O’Reilly Book Sales Trends

O’Reilly has posted their quarterly State of the Computer Book Market for Q1 of 2007.

The report is in three four parts: Part I – Part II – Part III – Part IV

Some of the web and programming topics on the rise since last year are: Ruby on Rails, Ruby, Flex, .NET, Python, SQL server, MySQL, Agile programming, JavaScript and Ajax.

Programming topics in decline are: ASP, JSP, C/C++, C#, Java, Perl, and Visual Basic.

It’s worth a look, especially if you are wondering if your skills are in step with the larger market.

Update: Links for part 3 and 4 added.
