What to learn next?

Question

Hi,

In my team we are using MVC 1.0, JQuery and LINQ2SQL to develop our current, and last couple, of applications. We have extensively used ASP.NET 3.5, ADO.NET and Windows development in the past and tried using SubSonic for dataaccess. We are currently focussing on the web spehere and are looking for some new technology to use.

We will be moving to Entity Framework in the future but don't want to move into this until VS2010/Framework 4.0 has been released. We will continue to use MVC 2.0 when that comes out. So, the question is:

What can we use now?

Answer 1

Possibly you might want to turn this question around slightly, and ask:
What is your biggest problem at the moment?

You may get more benefit on focusing on this, and potential solutions then new technologies, or it may point you in the direction you need to take.

For example you might want to look at virtualization, silverlight, or agile methodologies... it all depends on the problem.
