Based upon job keyword searches on Monster.com, the most of the demand is still moving towards Java and J2EE. Lets play Monster Tech-en developer demand tag team over the last 31 days.

Java Vs C#
Java and C# = 239 [monster.com], C# = 736 [monster.com] OR 497 for C# alone, Java = 4596 [monster.com] OR 4357 for Java alone, Java Wins outright 4357 to 497.

In fact Java is more in demand than C++ (3081) [monster.com] or Visual Basic ( 2252 ) [monster.com]

J2EE Vs .NET
J2EE AND .NET = 23 [monster.com], .NET = 1392 [monster.com] or 1369 for .NET alone, J2EE = 2120 [monster.com] or 2097 for J2EE alone, J2EE wins by points 2097 to 1369.

According to theory, .NET should be picking up the bulk of Visual Basic Developers…
J2EE With Visual Basic Vs .NET WITH Visual Basic, Visual Basic AND J2EE AND .NET = 5 [monster.com], Visual Basic AND .NET = 58 [monster.com] or 53 alone, Visual Basic AND J2EE = 168 [monster.com] or 163 for J2EE alone, J2EE wins by points 163 to 53.

In comparison to the number of Visual Basic based jobs, there is very little demand for the shift towards the backward incompatable Visual Basic.NET [monster.com].

According to theory, C# should be picking up the bulk of Visual Basic Developers…
Java With Visual Basic Vs C# WITH Visual Basic
Visual Basic AND Java AND C# = 65 [monster.com], Visual Basic AND C# = 250 [monster.com] or 185 alone, Visual Basic AND Java = 696 [monster.com] or 534 alone, Java wins by points 534 to 185.

According to theory, C# should be picking up the bulk of the C++ developers…
Java With C++ Vs C# WITH C++
C++ AND Java AND C# = 149 [monster.com], C++ AND C# = 311 [monster.com] or 162 alone, C++ AND Java = 1242 [monster.com] or 1093 alone, Java wins outright 1093 to 162.
