Interesting...

According to Forbes, More than 25% of the world’s websites are run by WordPress and it is the most popular CMS in the world. WordPress powers nearly 75 million websites.

A mentor advised “Software Engineering is a broad field as one would need to focus on his best programming language, but more importantly, on what SELLS CURRENTLY, that is, following the market not just PASSION“.
But … technology is dynamic and a lot come up to override stale (once current) solutions. And then, somehow they take over present solutions. #Disruption.

The rate at which Content Management Systems, new Open source technologies and enterprise frameworks are built is pretty fast and really amazing.

For example, Microsoft or ASP.NET MVC software professionals probably spent so much energy, time, resources and of course gather good experience over the years, then, only to find out that his or her knowledge seems outdated – even upon trying to keep up daily via thorough studies, seminar attendance, workshop and professional training. He or she then realize that WordPress makes life easy or probably Android App development is the way forward. But while trying to get materials to study…soon another innovation would override the known… so the question is how does one build a Career and find his or her bearing in this very dynamic industry called Website or Software Engineering?
Is there hope for passionate Software developers?

Please help. You may share your experiences.

Thank you
