Congratulations to Jeremiah Owyang on his new Web Strategy gig @ Forrester Research; as well to Forrester for scooping up someone with his prodigious research & blogging talents. Jeremiah will be a great fit with other top-notch analysts there such as Charlene Li & Josh Bernoff.
Both Jeremiah & Charlene are personal friends, and i've been fortunate to have them speak & moderate at tech conferences & user groups i've helped run such as last year's Web 2.0 Expo and the SDForum Search SIG. With luck, i'll still be able to get both of them to participate in future events too!
It's good to see a firm like Forrester adding talented bloggers to its research staff... they need more folks like Jeremiah & Charlene & Josh who blog regularly, to ensure they remain relevant as a resource for tech strategy & analysis. All too often great content & research gets buried behind paid access or subscription-only login, and unfortunately the companies that choose this web strategy are missing the Forrest(er) for the trees ;) Better to give away some valuable & insightful content, and use that to gain interest & clients for higher-end research.
More Startups. More Jobs.
I agree - I've sat in on a couple of Forrester's social media webcasts and have thought they seemed soft. I'm a daily ready of Jeremiah's blog (and a Facebook follower) which I've shared with others in my company's senior management. I will definitely check out Charlene's and Josh's blogs.
I'm looking forward to more consistent and relevant (the space changes so quickly) Forrester analysis.

Thank you! It makes it easier to read (except out of my right eye when wearing my 3D glasses)

Part 2: What's wrong, don't I get ANY red text? (disappointed)

Dave thank you so much for the kind words.
