Great Article. UX is the new buzzword in pretty much every sector at the moment, especially financial, my last contract was "UX Developer" I'm not even sure what it means, but from my day to day, I wrote javascript HA!

Heheh, so they intended to hire a front end developer, because of the new buzzword, and then they hired as a UX Developer to chase up the trend...

I have seen a lot of companies doing that, they also guess a UX designer could do everything...

I guess I should also keep an eye on UX gigs then. I'm a programmer and tended to ignore UX positions because I figured it might be a whole separate discipline. But I can do javascript just fine. (I'm not much good at graphical design, though.)
