It's not fun to be on the wrong side of an asymmetrical information situation (witness the popularity of online car pricing tools). Before you start discussing salary with a potential employer, a little homework will prepare you for a more pleasant experience. Since the original post, some new sources have popped up.
Indeed launched a new salary tool yesterday (via Search Engine Watch). Like the Indeed job search, the salary tool is simple to use and gives useful answers to the question everyone wants answered.
As a bonus for marketers, the 2006 Aquent/AMA Compensation Survey of Marketing Professionals gives another data point. It's always nice if multiple sources give similar answers, isn't it?
