technology: Instant projector on your smartphone with a snap! - 09/26/16 11:33 PM
What smartphone do you have?  Have you heard of the MotoZ from Verizon?  This phone has different mods (attachments) that you can change with a snap!  We used the Insta Share projector for movies outside, on the wall and even on the ceiling laying in bed!  An instant 70 big screen!  
I can see REALTORS® using this option for presentations.  No need to carry a laptop or have people hovering over your phone.  Just snap on the projector and you have control over your phone.

technology: How to type REALTOR® trademark symbol on iPhone, Android, Mac or Windows - 09/21/16 07:03 AM
I work with a alot of REALTORS® on their online marketing.  And I have been noticing that so many don't even know how to use and market their REALTOR® desgintation.  So since I have been asked by so many, I am sure there are more that just need their friendly reminder on how easy it is to do.

technology: My 3 Favorite Blackberry Applications - 09/02/09 01:37 PM
I LOVE my Blackberry Curve!  And yes I am an addict and not ashamed at all.  I purchased almost a year ago and I do not know how I survived without it.  It has made my business more efficient in many ways. 
Here are 3 of my favorite blackberry applications:

 
 Funambol - I love because it syncs my Outlook contacts, calendar, tasks and notes.  So even if I am not at my computer I can check my outlook calendar and vice versa. 
 
 
 

Vlingo - In the state of Virginia it is now illegal to drive and … (18 comments)

technology: Don't Underestimate The Power Of The Handwritten Note - 07/17/09 02:35 PM
I am 100% on board with technology, social networking and making things easier to communicate by emailing, texting and even skyping.  I have been teaching and speaking quite a bit lately around Hampton Roads for various groups and organzizations. 
Well yesterday I got a handwritten card in the mail from a real estate agent thanking me for speaking at an event.  I thought it was so thoughtful and something that I will keep in my binder of recommendations. 

Thank you Robin McIsaac!
When was the last time you took the time to say thank you the good old fashioned way?

technology: I Am Hooked On REBar Camp! - 07/16/09 02:12 PM
Thanks Tina Merritt and all the volunteers and sponsors who put on a successful REbar Camp here in Virginia Beach.  Otherwise known as #REBCVB 

This was my first experience - I had been able to lurk in on a few of the other ones around the country thanks to the Dakno guys Bobby and Brad Carroll.  But being able to experience the excitement, sharing and networking in person was invaluable!
I got the great pleasure of meeting some great bloggers, social media, facebook friends and twitterers that I have been networking with for years and already had the connection with … (10 comments)

technology: Video Chat And Messaging - 03/01/09 01:16 PM
So I guess the new thing now is video chatting and messaging.  I have found some cool new sites that are all available and free to use. 
Most laptops these days already come with the built in webcam making it very convenient to communicate in different ways with your business associates, clients and friends. 
I originally got it because my mother lives in Omaha and we live in Virginia Beach and can video chat with the kids and she keep up with them.  But I have found many other good ways to use it.
So far I have accounts on Tokbox, … (10 comments)

technology: I was "Googled" - 02/24/09 01:17 PM
Twice this week I had customers actually tell me that they did "Google" me to find out more information.  One customer actually was looking me up online as I was taking his application so that he could find out who I was.  After about 15 minutes of going through it with him online and even pointing him to my blog he was quite impressed and I did get his full application.

This can be a very powerful tool in your favor or against you.  Keep in mind the kind of information that you write and what others write about you.  … (23 comments)

technology: NO Service - No Problem! - 02/18/09 08:28 AM
  
  Don't you hate it when you are needing to use your cell phone and then you get the dreaded "No Service"
Well I did find out some great news - at least for blackberry users that I had no idea we could use and might save you a call to the "Customer Service"
We recently moved to an area where we have ZERO cell phone coverage and that is just not acceptable when our phones are our #1 resource besides our computer for our jobs.  I think on average my husband alone can talk about 4000 minutes a month.
