I am now feeling the pull of the blog. My alerts are coming fast and furious. This is more fun than I ever imagined. And as Jay pointed out extremely important for our business. Thanks Jay

From <a href="http://www.adeltarealty.net/" rel="nofollow">Glenn</a>: Maybe Joe could share his presentation here on the blog. I know that his information could be very informative. Do I dare mention that my wife is a Long Island gal? Rescued from spam.

Will be in this months edition of Phoenix Magazine, their annual real estate addition. Invited to speak at local and national real estate and business seminars. Every single one of those was a result of the blog. I don't say this to toot my own horn, just to share the power of blogging. Helen - you're welcome to use as much or as little as you'd like.

Having traveled the country preaching the word of blogging, it was especially rewarding to bring the message to the Realtors in New York, where blogging still has not taken off, as in other states (like Arizona :) Jay Thompson is proof of one of the benefits of blogging-- media attention, which can lead to business. Way to go Jay. You've been on the local TV news, as well. Am I right? Thanks Frank. I look forward to more opportunities to help professionals become more aware of online tools & technology and how they might use them to enhance their current marketing and networking efforts. As Helen said, there are many tools in the toolshed-- learn to use as many as you can and choose the ones that work best for you. Helen,

Jay Thompson is proof of one of the benefits of blogging– media attention, which can lead to business.

I also am a real estate instructor as Rudy knows that's how we met way back when, can I use your story as an example of how much the landscape has changed and blogging is the new tool in the toolshed? Jay,

"Watch out California and Florida, New York’s comin’ to get ya." I betcha on a per capita basis, Arizona just might be the epicenter of real estate blogging... ;) Wanna see another way blogging works? From an email I got a couple of hours ago: "Our daughter is finishing ASU and we have her sweet condo to sell. I saw your name in the Tribune, and was led to contact you. Can we talk?" The Tribune is a local paper. The only reason they know I exist, and call often, is via the blog. And apparently people still read the papers and perceive value in people quoted in them as "authorities". And some people say blogging is a waste of time..... I bet it was fabulous!
