I've seen several Geoexpat threads on salary, so thought I'd share an interesting CNN Money article about PayScale, a salary benchmarking/data company that offers free basic valuations of how you compare to others in your field and geography.
albeit far from perfect, I tried it out for fun and it was surprisingly accurate with other industry benchmarks i've used for my field. at least i was happy to learn i wasn't getting shafted!
