Job title of the future arrives

A few months back, we speculated that with the exponential growth of blogs, podcasts and all things personal publishing that social media analyst might be a job title of the future.

Congrats to Jeff Risley, whose new title at Barkley Evergreen & Partners is VP/social media analyst.

Please point out where I say he's the first.

I only speculated that about the title, not the work.

Agreed Ben. And in my original post about the title, I never claimed to be the firt (title or work) of this type.

The future is a beautiful place. I don't know if anyone has told you in a while that you do a great job. Keep it up. I'm always talking about this site.

Extremely interesting. I'd like to be a Chief Customer Officer. The term social media analyst does not imply action, just analysis, and customer oriented action and solutions.
