In the 1990s I ran www.ibm.com. As such I was one of a very small number of people who had "internet" in their job title on the internal employee directory (CALLUP for the IBMers out there). And I was the only person working at Corporate HQ with such a title. This resulted in hundreds of phone calls and emails every week from people (employees and non-employees who called some IBM 800 number) asking questions about the internet, how to get onto the internet, why wasn't the Internet using SNA or RJE, etc.
Eventually I got a second phone number which only coworkers and key contacts knew.
