Like most new technology stuff, I was pretty close to the leading edge when I started playing with Foursquare. I think I’ve been at it now for about a year.  So far, it hasn’t translated into any specific business results.  I’m not sure that it will any time soon, in-and-of-itself, but foursquare represents what’s coming [...]

My buddies at Dotloop.com have one of the coolest technology products for real estate.  It’s eSignature, digital forms & transaction management all rolled into one simple app. Check out the video from Fox News last night

Last week I visited some friends at NAR while I was in Chicago on other business. During the visit, I learned more about what’s going on with HouseLogic.com — specifically as it pertains to tools & benefits for Realtors. This morning, I heard a radio ad spot on Atlanta radio about HouseLogic as well. It [...]

Now you can embed your tweets into your post(s) – something you had to do with an image-hack before (not too pretty).  The result looks like this: .bbpBox14237732052 {background:url(http://a3.twimg.com/profile_background_images/85012423/twitter03212010.jpg) #fafafa;padding:20px;} p.bbpTweet{background:#fff;padding:10px 12px 10px 12px;margin:0;min-height:48px;color:#000;font-size:18px !important;line-height:22px;-moz-border-radius:5px;-webkit-border-radius:5px} p.bbpTweet span.metadata{display:block;width:100%;clear:both;margin-top:8px;padding-top:12px;height:40px;border-top:1px solid #fff;border-top:1px solid #e6e6e6} p.bbpTweet span.metadata span.author{line-height:19px} p.bbpTweet span.metadata span.author img{float:left;margin:0 7px 0 0px;width:38px;height:38px} p.bbpTweet a:hover{text-decoration:underline}p.bbpTweet span.timestamp{font-size:12px;display:block} Absolutely [...]
