Laura I actually love the term. To your point above, it helps me identify the user immediately. It's like wearing an exceptionally bright sign that says "don't waste your time with me." Hugh did a great capture of this in today's cartoon: see the center panel - "Social Media Specialist hustling corporate dude for paid gigs!" http://www.gapingvoid.com/brain001JPEG%20B.jpg HA!

We test, we make mistakes, we grow, and we figure out what works best for the community we are trying to serve. But the problem is a lot of folks aren't bothering to learn...they are self-proclaiming themselves experts and a lot of unknowing clients are buying into it. It's a shame because in the long run, it's the client and their community who might potentially suffer. Thanks for carrying the conversation forward!
