Do you have some opinions on how social media is changing the analyst business? Or how it could be changing the analyst game? If so, I’d love to hear from you. Your points may well end up on my July roundtable, ”The Impact of Social on the Analyst Industry“, with Jonny Bentwood of Edelman, Carter Lusher of SageCircle, and our roundtable producer and host, Jeremiah Owyang of Altimeter Group. The Twitter hashtag is #socialanalyst.
We’ll be discussing — and debating — the impact of social on analysts and analyst firms, and resulting changes in the analyst experience for IT decision makers, tech providers and their analyst relations representatives.
Some changes are taking place behind the scenes, in business, research and sales operations. Some changes are clearly visible at events and online through blogs, communities, media sites and Twitter. Other changes are being forced on the analyst business by IT decision makers and tech providers, as social media redefines approaches to decision making and influencer relations.
Social is not just another hammer in the tech toolbox. It’s also a set of behaviors. We expect analysts to adopt these new behaviors. So far, some are, some are not.
As with all Altimeter Group webinars, this one is free to attend and space is limited! Register at your earliest if you’d like to participate in the live conversation.

Tekrati is getting a new logo as part of its 10th anniversary update. I’d appreciate your comments before we tear apart the existing Tekrati masthead.
Here’s my top pick (so far):
It’s over in the right column here as well.
If you’re wondering where this came from: Michael Montoya Graphic Design created a fun logo and site design for the Tekrati debut in 2000. Around mid-decade, we skinnied the logo down to the typography. Coming full circle - bringing back the lightbulb and the original color palette - seems a good way of saying, “10 years - yes!”
