Glad to hear you're enjoying your job. Your post is pretty obnoxious though. Are you really not aware of what a troll this comes across as?

"...most applications these days being written in PHP"? What planet are you on? Most applications these days are written in Java, if job postings and language popularity are any indication at all.

"...this website is exactly the same as it was 2 years ago"? There have been tons of changes, but I guess you don't count anything that isn't a design change.

If you seriously want to know what's been going on with Perl for the last 3 years, read perldelta for 5.8.8 (and the rest back to 5.8.3 that came out three years ago). You would also want to read up on some major CPAN stuff like object-relation mappers (Rose::DB::Object and DBIx::Class) and current hot topics like Moose.

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
