There's a post out on Digg that comments "The death knell for Visual Basic is premature, but it's true that VB has deviated from its original vision as an "Application Construction Kit" for the masses and has lost significant market share as a result." http://digg.com/programming/Rise_and_Fall_of_Visual_Basic

VB users: What do you think? Is Visual Basic still a viable option for you in the workplace? What new uses have you found for VB.NET? Do you still use VB or have you moved on to another language?
