It's funny, my little brother's an architecture student ("real" architecture - buildings, etc.) and it drives him crazy when job sites list a dozen IA jobs and nothing in his actual field.

I'm not a big fan of anyone calling themselves a "guru" or "maven" of anything, unless they're with friends/being casual or funny.

I'm a MLS student at Pratt Institute in NYC right now (which is the oldest still-open library school -- 1890 -- since Columbia closed theirs) and I'm really looking to go into traditional academic librarianship, but I know the job market's tight. We'll see what happens in a year!
