Information Engineers

[Gordon McLean]

Ahh, my apologies, skim read both emails and article.

But I'd say the rest of my comment stands, or possibly it's a question:

"Is our industry moving away from English graduates to IT graduates?"

(and yes, that's a very open question, but it seems to reflect things here
locally with me)

I'm not sure which "skew in job title" you mean. If you're referring to the
CNN Money article, the IE position it describes isn't a TW job. It's not a
case of someone coming up with a fancy new title for a technical writer.

As Arroxane said, some people who have worked as TWs would have a head start
on a job like this, but that doesn't make it TW job--whatever you call it.
