A 20 lb Sledge Hammer and Other Observations
Because I still can't seem to get caught up enough to finish any worthwhile posts, I thought I would let you know what I have found interesting in my reading and research lately:
Spencer's Post About Realty Times Article on Realtor.Com Draws over 40 Comments
HAR is advertising heavily in Social Networking Sites. I have seen their ads on LinkedIn and Facebook numerous times. If you think social media marketing isn't important, ask someone at HAR why they think it is. In fact, when I get time, I'll do it for you!
Dustin says Outside.In has a chance. I went to the site, not only was my neighborhood not listed, neither was Spring or The Woodlands. Until they get better coverage, I think the jury is still out. There is more to Houston than Bellaire and River Oaks.
The Bloodhound Blog Unchained event wrapped up recently. Tons of videos on their YouTube Channel. Just look at the number of views to find those worth watching, it's a pretty good gauge.
Jay Thompson gives an in depth look at the new web site analysis tool, Woopra. I guess there are just not enough words left in the english language to come up with a start up name that makes any sense any more.
Matt Rathbun has over 22 answers to the question, "I read real estate industry blogs because....." Jump over and add your answer.
We have a new client that is one of the most colorful and genuinely nice people I have spoken with in ages. Is it possible for a client to be more excited about our product than we are? No. But this guy sure comes close. Check out what Connor MacIVOR of Paris911.Com has to say about his new MLBroadcast feed in his blog and on Active Rain (members only). I love the sledge hammer and speeding truck analogies. His feed is the featured MLBroadcast client in the side bar of this blog.

All good stuff!
I'd say that my point with Outside.in was not that they still had a good chance, but that they were really missing out on a few key things... and in particular, reaching out to the real estate community. I think if they had flipped their focus just a bit at launch, they could have done a much better job getting local content (and potentially covering your local neighborhoods!). :)
Noted. Thanks D for helping me keep up with everything in the RE.net on 4Realz. Its one of my first stops of the day.
Hey Mike, thank you for the kind words. I was LAPD for the past 17 years, started Real Estate 10 years ago, and quit LAPD March 29, 2007 but remained as a full line reserve and teach Firearms/Tactics in that capacity. I can smell foul and know it well. You are a going to be a true blessing to our business model - I imagined it like a "sticky-bomb" going off after you had the first MLBroadcast finished - and I was right - I was sticking to Google and a lot of other search engines where I was not before.
It was also nice that you had the time to personally take my call, and I am looking forward to learning from reading your blog and also from you. - And about Jeff Turner, He has done a lot in the opening up of my (government trained) mind. I am thankful for your product and I cannot wait until the others "blow up".
Thanks Brother and Speak with you soon..
CONNOR with HONOR
