http://www.tiobe.com/tiobe_index/index.htm
You will see that there is a surge of activity of Visual Basic in the internet.
The webmaster thinks that the sudden surge is caused by Microsoft releasing the new VB as Visual Basic 2005 rather than VB.Net 2005.
But even if so, if we check the difference between June 2005 and the present rating of Visual Basic, it'll show a solid 5 point difference. If we accept his explanation of the sudden surge of VB, then the 5 point difference is for VB.Net (or Visual Basic 2005) alone.
That will make VB.Net rank at around the level of Perl-- clearly surpassing C#(only at 2.6).
This only shows the internet activity with Visual Basic in it. It's not about being the best language or with the most lines of code.
But still, has the Visual Basic community regaining momentum?

Yes. Because we're still clinging to Classic VB. We're not counted. |

Posted - Aug 08 2006 : 05:27:10 AM Hehe, Visual Basic is now sitting between C and C++. VB is rising fast and C# and C++ is slowly dropping. C# has a long way to climb to gain on vb's 3rd spot. |
