Utah: The techie state
If your computer ever crashes in Utah, take comfort in the knowledge that there are plenty of people here who know their way around a motherboard.
A recent study by the Milken Institute puts Utah among the top 10 states in technology and science. Utah is No. 8, up from No. 9 in the previous study in 2004.
Meanwhile, a study by AeA, a trade association, ranks Salt Lake City as third in terms of high-tech job growth among U.S. cities. The tech industry here added 2,300 jobs in 2006 (the latest data available for the study), a seven percent increase, for an industry total of 34,300.
