1. The forrester directive only includes blogs.
2. I don&#039;t know why this is so hard to understand, but Forrester and analysts have a mutually beneficial relationship. Without the analysts, Forrester is nothing. Without Forrester, the analysts can&#039;t do their jobs, either. The companies supports us and our research, which permits us to come up with research-based insights that clients and others value. That&#039;s our job.]]></description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A few clarifications.</p><p>1. The forrester directive only includes blogs.</p><p>2.

So you&#039;re saying before you were at Forrester you were a nobody. But now, thanks to Forrester, you are &quot;respected&quot; and &quot;moderately famous&quot;? First, gag me with a spoon. Second, should people even be listening/reading you then since it was Forrester that made you famous? To me, that says the venue created you and not your content. Personally, I&#039;d prefer to have my content make me, not be living of the coattails of something and someone  else.]]></description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Josh, in all due respect, that response reeks of arrogance.</p><p>So you&#8217;re saying before you were at Forrester you were a nobody.

Does the Forrester prime directive only include blogs? What of, oh, Twitter updates? Can they not include analytical/industry thoughts either?]]></description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Intriguing.
