You might want to add "Technology/Industry" like Web Companies(FB,Twitter), App Companies(Built on Top of FB, Twitter), Mobile Companies, Networking (Cisco, Juniper), DB/related (Oracle), OS(Apple, MSFT).

I "get" the feeling that programmers in Web technologies get paid less than people in hardware/appliance companies like Cisco, Juniper, NetApp etc.

Edit: Just noticed the Industry Option :)

Hardware (as in embedded programming) actually pays pretty badly compared to web programming (although I expect Cisco/Juniper are exceptions).

Depends on what field you are in with embedded programming. I know a few people that work on embedded hardware such as microwaves, fridges and whatnot that make 100,000+ a year.
