Craig was kind enough to send me a couple of articles about the hot job titles to have, “Business Technologist” aka “IT Business Technologist” or “IT Business Analyst”

Hmm, since every time I open my mouth in my office I’m technically communicating with non-IT people about IT, and trying to take their problems and find technical solutions to them, maybe I should look into upgrading my job title. It sounds a whole lot better than IT Specialist!

Yeah I know, I shouldn’t complain about IT Specialist, up until a year ago my job title was Database Administrator. IT Specialist is twenty times more accurate than that!

Thanks Craig!

    Note to self: Later, read through all the responses to this slashdot thread about what you would include in an IT toolkit. Looks like there are some pretty good tools and ideas running around in there, but I need to do some work and can’t really look at them all right now. (link via nf0)…
