In reviewing what lings and other blogs I should list here, I ran across a great quote from one of my strongly-opinionated heroes, Allen Holub. It's about hiring, and matches my recent experience, where companies want somebody who knows some exact "hot" technology and accept no substitutes.
When you select for experience with specific technologies, for example, you reject extremely qualified people who could learn the required skills in a few days, while hiring incompetent programmers who have been using the technology incorrectly for years.
