Where the Tweet Did The Time Go? - 12/16/08 10:57 PM
I looked up from my computer and it was 8:15 p.m. Where the Tweet did the time go? I've been messing around with Twitter the past week, trying to find ways to streamline my Tweets. I've made some progress with the number of people I'm following as well as the number of people that are following me. My Twitter Grader rating is up to 95%, a substantial increase from a few days ago. TweetDeck has been working out nicely for me. But now I have a serious problem. I am following 729 people. Only 400 people are following me

Gorgeous Light Blanket of Snow Falls on Saddleback Mountain - 12/16/08 05:05 PM
Yesterday's winter storm dropped a gorgeous light blank of snow on Saddleback Mountain. Rancho Santa Margarita and Trabuco Canyon sit on the western base of the Santa Ana Mountain Foothills. In my 40+ years I've never seen it snow in either RSM or Trabuco Canyon, but I always look forward to seeing snow on Saddleback and I'm always out there trying to get the perfect picture to capture the moment. It doesn't snow very often on Saddleback Mountain and the snow certainly doesn't stick around for any great length of time. To get a decent photo of snow on Saddleback

Social Media Connections, Twitter & Quid Pro Quo Bring Additional Exposure - 12/15/08 03:01 PM
I've had an unusually busy last few days. On Friday morning I happened to see a Tweet by my friend Morgan Brown that there was an OC Tweetup. I am fairly new to Twitter and I had no idea whether a Tweetup was an actual or a virtual meeting. It turns out that it can be both. Silly me! I received the Tweet at 9:58. The Tweeup began at 10:00. There were several OC Tweeple in attendance, so I dashed out of the house and headed for Coffee Bean in Lake Forest. I was excited to see Loren Nason. Loren was

Praying for Snow on Saddleback Mountain - Santa Ana Mountain Range - 12/15/08 02:24 AM
A winter storm is blowing into Orange County and I'm crossing my fingers, hoping that a light blanket of snow will fall on Saddleback Mountain. I am somewhat obsessed with snow. Having grown up in Orange County, CA, I regard snow as a special treat. I associate it with hot chocolate, a nice crackling fire in a quaint chalet, and several days worth of lift tickets. It has never snowed at my house and I have to admit that I'm a wee bit jealous when I read other ActiveRainers writing about the first snowfall. Ann Hayden of Wildwood, MO wrote about

Are Home Inspections Really Needed for Rancho Santa Margarita Foreclosures and Short Sales? - 12/10/08 03:37 PM
When buying a Rancho Santa Margarita Foreclosure or bank owned home, does a buyer really need to spend extra money for a home inspection? What if the home is sold "as is, where-is"? The answer is YES! In all cases you should have a licensed professional evaluate the home you will be purchasing. Whether or not repairs will be requested or made, a local professional, licensed home inspector should be hired for a home inspection.
