		<description>I really love this article because it brings up a good point: who can really call themselves "experts" in social media? 

I like to think of myself as a life-long learner - the day I say I'm an expert is the day I stop learning and in a field that is constantly changing at an increasing rate, that'll kill ya.

I think it's also important that like any job, you need to prove you can do the work. They want some experience, some references, some examples of your work. Sure the girl may not have had many followers on Twitter but the number of followers she does/doesn't have may not show what she can do. :)  Let's just wait and see...who knows! Big things might happen. :)

		<description>FWIW, I've been blogging since early 2001, been on Twitter since shortly after it launched in 2006, and have actively participated in more forms of social media and social networking environment than I can even recall.

I spoke at the first big business-focused conference on blogging/social media back in 2003, and at many other events since then. 

I've designed and run numerous successful social media-driven campaigns, spanning a host of different platforms and purposes, and I now make my living almost exclusively through social media consulting. 

I've been described by clients, colleagues and competitors as a "social media expert". Personally, I can't stand the term. 

The day I start thinking of myself as an "expert" is the day you can officially put me out to grass; as that will mark the day I've stopped learning.

OK, I"m being snarky - I know.  Point is, there are lots and lots of people who know how to do stuff in this space, but the self-described "experts" are often the ones you really want to avoid. Your main argument here is well made - judge by past results, not by claims of expertise.  It's what you've done that matters, not what you say you can do.</description>
