http://www.bls.gov/oco/ocos303.htm is the authoritative source for the U.S. The bright side: "Computer software engineers are among the occupations projected to grow the fastest and add the most new jobs over the 2008-18 decade, resulting in excellent job prospects." And then "Employment of computer programmers is expected to decline by 3 percent through 2018."

So the fastest growing occupation in the U.S. still shrinks. This is probably something you won't hear a politician crowing about.

The BLS says the median starting salary was $61,000 in July 2009.
