What are good development skills to diversify to?

Peter Foley

I have spent the last few years working with on a niche development platform but would like to move on now.

I was wondering what are some good languages, platforms to retrain in? I need to diversify my skillset to make me more attractive in the marketplace.

Good platforms languages to learn right now are anything to do with web and mobile. For web technologies you could learn: js, cloud, CRM, popular API's. On mobile good platforms to pickup are blackberry, android, iphone.

It's really a information driven world so the learning technologies that will help people get information when they need on all devices is probably the best way to go.

I'd agree with Jason, finding your niche in either mobile or enterprise web solutions would be a good move up.
