New blog is scathing about role of analysts and AR - or is it?

So, there's a new analyst relations blog out there. And Ahmed Siddiqui is already causing a stir.

I was all ready to jump in and disagree with Ahmed but he's now posted up some comments which clarify what his original post really meant.

When he said most analysts only do market sizing and case studies, apparently what he meant was analysts collect quantitative and qualitative data - he wasn't refering to what analysts then use this data for...

We were talking about RAS analysts advising customers. Ahmed just doesn't get it!
