Inman has Gone Blog Wild February 26, 2007

and it is a good thing!
Looks like they just published the first of a 4-part series on real estate blogging (only by subscription after today!). Lots of good stuff from some of today’s heavy hitters!
It was great to see Todd of Lenderama get some exposure for his (very cool) REMBEX search [...]

NARdi Gras Blogging November 8, 2006

The folks over at the Center for REALTOR Technology have made it a bit too tempting, so I’ve decided I’m going to blog the NARdi Gras!
Please join me over on the new blog platform on Move.com as I take over the site with a Mardi Gras theme for the next week. [...]

Ten Ways to a Killer Blog by the Scobles October 27, 2006

The Scobles (Robert and Maryam) led a fun presentation which began as 10 ways to killer blog, but ended as a way to 15 fun (and potentially valuable) tips.
It was a fun talk and Maryam’s giddy attitude was infectious with the crowd playing along with fun questions.

Blog because you want to.

Building Communities Online October 26, 2006

Out of all the sessions at the Blog Business Summit, the session on building online communities held a special place of interest for me. In many ways, I simply happened upon the community that I’ve built at RCG, so it was refreshing to hear the speakers articulating thoughts I’ve had on how to build a [...]

Enjoying the Blog Business Summit in Seattle

I’m currently attending the Blog Business Summit at the Bell Harbor Conference Center at Pier 66 in Seattle. It’s a beautiful facility (and wifi works well!).
The first session led by Jason Calacanis was a great and very personal history about blogging. If I had to summarize his talk in a few words, it would [...]

2nd Day @ Inman July 28, 2006

For many, “Pressing the Flesh” (talking with potential clients/competitors/vendors/media/etc) is the most valuable part of any conference, and for better or worse, the most valuable part of my day yesterday was spent connecting up with others.
I can’t say that any of the presentations I attended yesterday were particularly interesting (i.e. worth blogging about) including [...]

Day Two - Realtor Mid-Year May 18, 2006

Yes, I am tardy with my report for Day 2. There was not much going on from an interesting meeting standpoint so I visited the tradeshow floor. For anyone that has not been to a Realtor tradeshow, it is certainly an experience. Flashing buttons, contests, people throwing free things at you. [...]
