No offence Apu, but when they were handing out religions you must have been out taking a whizz

No... I'm not going to name any names....

That being said - a lot of these people get hired via the "homie hook-up" that works behind the scenes of this industry - or any other for that matter. It happens everywhere. The "in" crowd, the "popular kids" - all that kind of stuff.

I'm not claiming that all the "popular" ones are clueless marketers, but some that I have talked to - and many that I have heard about from other webmasters - fall into this group.

Again I have to say that it is a sad thing for the true marketers/consultants of this industry that have done some amazing behind-the-scenes work @ programs, services and companies throughout the 'Net. It's unfortunate that they are sometimes lumped in with these clueless wonders - it's like the old saying about some ruining it for all... I hate that.
