Can someone give me some information on this? I know I can google it... but what is it used for just making websites? is it easy to learn? I have a job opportunity but I need to learn this.

its microsoft .net framework
.net is a programming language, either visbasic or c#

Thanks wondering if its easy to learn etc.

thats kind of subjective.

are you smarter than the average bear yogi?
do u have any experience with progrmming
do u have any experience with developing web applications through a database?

DNN is a Web Content Management System. In a nutshell, its a frontend system that web developers will use to design website pages without having to manually code each page. So, there is basically a lot of drag and drop/point and click type work as opposed to writing each individual page with something like ASP.NET or a markup language like HTML.

It is designed not necessarily for beginners, but for web designers without a strong coding background. If you know .NET then you will be prepared to tackle a project with DNN. If you aren't, you can manage but don't expect it to just be a cakewalk. This assumes all you are doing is the UI design. If you are actually developing web applications to be called from each page, then I would expect you to brush up on your .NET knowledge.

I'd implore you to do some research into what a CMS is if you are truly interested in a job opportunity that uses it.

This is the answer I was looking for... thank you so much.

is there a particular reason u want to learn this over something else?

theres a lot better opensource out there (imo) than anything microsoft puts out (which you need to pay for)

Job opportunity.

Lies with other languages, unless you want to specialize in a particular language for possible higher pay

Ruby/Ruby on rails pays good atm

60k+ a year starting in most cases.
