- Good plan, making myself immediately more useful will increase my value in the company while the latter two will increase my value as a developer in general.Bob Roberts– Bob Roberts2010-12-17 16:06:10 +00:00Commented Dec 17, 2010 at 16:06
- Exactly. Although I think you'll find that over your career, making your self valuable as a developer in general will also increase your value in the company. The payoff can be a couple of years though.Marcie– Marcie2010-12-17 16:09:54 +00:00Commented Dec 17, 2010 at 16:09
- 1Maybe the answer should be "Both" instead of "Yes". Looking at the title of the question and the answer, I'm confused.Amr– Amr2010-12-17 16:42:58 +00:00Commented Dec 17, 2010 at 16:42
- 1I have found that as I learn a new language or paradigm, I become more effective at #1 - I believe this is because having a broader experience gives you different perspectives on how to solve a particular problem. Same lesson learned as: If you only have a hammer, every problem starts to look like a nail.Astra– Astra2010-12-17 16:52:34 +00:00Commented Dec 17, 2010 at 16:52

How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. design-patterns), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
