Network World magazine has released this year's edition of the Robert Half Technology 2006 Salary Guide. It includes a tremendous amount of data and every high-tech careerist should spend some time digging into its findings.

You shouldn't negotiate for that raise or a new position without an understanding of the current state of high-tech salaries. The guide also includes methods for adjusting the data for your local market.

I know I am going to be spending a few hours going over everything to gain a better understanding of the current high-tech job market.
