Humid Beings

I just liked "Splitscreen: A Love Story" on Vimeo: http://vimeo.com/25451551

RT @audreywatters: @gcouros I think it would be. Would Google Plus be such a hot topic for educators if sites like Twitter weren't filt ...

@noladex did you put the photos at 400 x 400 or did you resize them to 300x300? Several that I took looked great 400, at 300 not so much

@TamaraLackey there is an option on Vimeo to create a mobile version. Not so great for iOS but works awesome on Android

@TamaraLackey I rushed to watch on my Android phone but there is no mobile version of the show :'(

Quick Twitter search reveals I'm not the only one with Google Chrome crashes. YouTube is almost unusable.

Dear local news sites: I want to share your videos but won't because of your pre-roll ads

@brianoberkirch missed you today at BarCamp NOLA. I was thinking back to the 1st one at Voodoo Ventures when you brought in your OLPC

Finally a post with some pictures | Chris Johnston Photography http://ow.ly/5GH6T

Getting some gold out of Twitter

Ok, this video is a bit geeky but if you have the chops to do this you can find some very interesting people to follow on Twitter. Find some interesting real estate people (like @respres, @paris911, or @nik_nik) or some of the influential Twitterati (@juliaroy, @garyvee, or @chrisbrogan, etc..). When…

Social Media Isn’t About Selling

Most real estate agents view marketing in terms of what they do to sell a listing. Some of the better and more successful agents view marketing in terms of what they do to promote their brand. The latter is more like social media than the former. The number one reason…

Better Stats For Your Website

Are you using Google Analytics on your website? If not, why not? Google just added a new feature to Analytics that will alert you when something out of the ordinary happens. If you get an increase in traffic, people are staying on page longer, looking at more pages, etc. you…

The reason I started this

I have a role model in this social media real estate craziness. Her name is Nicole Nicolay. Now I certainly won’t be dancing on camera and I’m not nearly as attractive but she showed me that there was a market for this information and that is was possible to make…

If Whole Foods Can Do It, Why Not You

This is exactly what more companies should be doing. The same way you drive traffic to your website you should be driving them to your social media sites. In fact you should probably drive people to your social media sites instead of your website. Why? Because it is where they…

Learning New Skills

I have often wondered why kids take to new experiences and technology easier than adults. I think it is because they are not yet afraid of failing. They are not worried about data loss, late assignments, having to redo work, etc. To them it is just playing, and messing up…

How To Setup Tweetdeck

If you have been wanting to expand from the web interface in Twitter to a dedicated application you need to try Tweetdeck. There are several that are good but I think that this one is appropriate for a beginner that wants to get a lot of useful info out of…

If you get contacted by a potential client, please follow-up

Using Twitter To Find People You Can Help Find A New Home

I recently put this up over on Facebook. Login to Facebook Connect to the right if you can’t see it. I’m explaining a little bit about how custom Twitter searches will help you find more clients. *I apologize for the loud ding noise. My iPhone was getting text messages and…

Getting your thoughts into your computer

If you love technology like I do you try to avoid using paper whenever possible. I take notes in Evernote with my laptop or iPhone. I sometimes snap photos of things I want to remember or even take audio notes if I’m in a position where I can’t type or…

The Real Reason Agents Don’t Use Social Media

Jeff Turner makes a very compelling argument about why you need to do what is right for you not what is right for the speaker. Many people don’t want to use social media because they are confused and don’t know what to do. They have seen so many different strategies…

How Bad Do You Want To Win This Year (NSFW)

Are you willing to fight this year? Are you willing to do whatever is necessary to win? I know this is about football but I think it can be applied to many things in life. I think that in this tough economy people will need to fight to survive and…

Gary Vaynerchuk Is Telling You To Rethink The Way You Advertise – Listen To Him

I think that if you don’t view this economic downturn as a opportunity to remake yourself and your business your in trouble. Take 30 minutes out of your day and WATCH THIS. If you don’t have time bookmark it and watch it later. My one take away from this is…

Google Is Changing Real Estate Search Forever

I posted this over on my Active Rain blog awhile back. I still have yet to see the majority of agents giving address data for their listings in print media. I’m not sure if this is due to the agents or to the publisher not giving that option when the…
