With the recent announcements regarding LINQ To SQL, and the Entity Framework team continuing to display how they really don't 'get' it , i've noticed an increase in popularity of my NHibernate related posts lately. I've also noticed an increase in traffic from people who are searching online with NHibernate related keywords. Obviously, it could just be a coincidence. But it would be pretty cool if people are now giving NHibernate more proper consideration when investigating what data access technologies to build your applications with.
How about you? Has the LINQ To SQL announcement or the 'progress' of the Entity Framework had any impact on which technology you would consider for your applications?
