confuses me. Most of the folks that I know who use it are in web marketing and seem to use it to distinguish those who produce that kind of writing from other??? kinds. Seems a little deprecating to me, but then I'm old as dirt. To you, then, it's a synonym for "writer"? Or does the set of content creators include, say, the graphics folks too?
