Coding is generally project-based, and there's just not a great amount of it happening now. Best thing you can do is spend a few months sharpening your skills, because when the gravy train pulls out again in a couple of years' time you'll need plenty of Silverlight, Ajax, Azure and whatnot.

Yeah it sucks being a .NET contractor at the minute. I've noticed its very quiet at the moment unless you have some additional niche skills.
Is there anything that you can put on your CV that marks you as different from the glut of common .NET developers out there. E.g. .NET with [insert favourite ERP solution here] or .NET with [insert your favourite enterprise document management solution].
If you can't differentiate yourself, you'll have to accept a lower rate or be prepared to travel. In tough times like these, companies (and that means us) only survive through cost leadership or product differentiation.

A friend of mine (infact senior) quite experienced and certified just been told on monday that his contract which was suppose to be finish end of May, will now be terminated end of this month. They were kind enough to give him 1 month notice whereas it was only 2 weeks written in contract.
Apparently, this chap is also in Gates's .Net arena.....

I know loads of really good .Net contractors that have been out for months. It's not looking good.
