why do people always assume an MBA is the best degree for a job? social media is communications and therefore a journalism person would be way more suited for this position. as a MA i am more than qualified but find it irritating when companies place such high premiums on MBAs. trust me, they are not gods!!!!

Can we have a Come-to-Jesus moment here? This position and job description are short-sighted, at best. If Windows 7 can’t correct the mistakes of Vista, no amount of Web 2.0 knowledge is gonna raise Lazarus from the dead.

Set your horizons further: make Windows 7 so solid that people will believe the OS can walk on water. Then ascend to Web 3.0 by making everything semantic. Allow the system to exist on keywords, thereby creating parent and child categories. Can Windows 7 understand semantic markup of fonts and how they’re assigned to styles within print and electronic formats? If yes, then Hark The Angels Sing! If no, then Get Thee Behind Me, Satan!

Look for someone to write the gospels for others to evangelize, but first and foremost make sure your tenants teach the teachers.

What about insanely, overly enthusiastic passionate Microsoft individuals who are currently seniors in college? Any leeway?! Please!!!
