Hi guys! I just started at Dealer this week, and was sitting here wishing I had had more of an idea of what to expect at the position I accepted. Then I thought, heck, a bunch of us are out there already, and we should share with you guys some of the technology we're using every day so you can at least have a sort of a topic list of what is being used out here in different companies.
In my internship at EQ2 (You are not allowed to view links.

This company was very awesome, if slightly behind on a lot of the UX and display technology. However, when I left, they were working on some very cool stuff.
My internship at MyWebGrocer (mywebgrocer.com) was very informative for me; I was exposed to a much larger ode base than I had been before, as well as having to learn C#, MVC3/razor, ANT, t-SQL and how to actually make use of a number of coding principles that I knew in theory. I learned a good deal about unit testing, SOLID, reflection and how awesome the Microsoft tools can be.
Thus far at Dealer.com I have been exposed to Groovy, Grails, ext.js, Jenkins, Maven, and gitflow.
Obviously most of my experiences have been in web-based and mobile technologies, so there is always jQuery, jQuery mobile, phonegap, SASS/Compass, HTML5, javascript, AJAX, knockout.js and everyone seems to like HighCharts.
