As many times as I've read that news stories were first reported on twitter, I wonder if this story "broke" on twitter.

It's no surprise really. Students have been told by the media that CS degrees will be outsourced to cheap countries and the jobs are hard. The effect is that students pursue easier degrees (more party time in college man!) that will probably pay poorly (easy degrees -> easier to get -> more degrees -> more supply -> lower pay) rather than pursue a career in CS that pays well and MAY be impacted by outsourcing. Sigh.
