"Webmaster" in 1997 covered a wide range of sins, and part of the change has been that what used to be one job is now a raft of them -- design, front-end coding, markup, back-end, ops, database, and more. Smaller shops may combine several of these, but it's not unusual to see each as its own specialty.

That's part of what I was getting at.

But the other was that "Webmaster" was a really hot ticket for a few years. It's faded markedly.

I can't see my parent comment at the moment, but I saw a recent "ask HN" post where the question concerned where all the Ruby-on-Rails jobs had gone. What had been a really hot ticked for the past few years is starting to fade. A lot of kids are starting to learn their first talent-shift lessons.
