blogging: 80's RADIO APPLY TO POSTS COMMENTS TODAY
- 03/02/20 06:48 AM
I remember when I volunteered to help out a friend who ran a successful radio program back in the 80's and played the role of a producer, call-in screener, announcer, marketer and subject prep person. I knew nothing about broadcasting, radio, recordings, sound and so much more but I was going to learn. After many months, it all made sense & fun. There are/were some do and don'ts in this professional world that I took away when I left DON'T DATE THE BROADCAST Stating what day it was or even what time of day dated the session instead of leaving it in a

blogging: HAVING YOUR POST and EATING IT TOO
- 02/25/20 06:39 AM
A good posting. Just what is it? Not all that is said, written or shared is worthy of a read or a response. If we break it down to subject matter, it becomes a little clearer especially to the one seeking and searching for that information. The exception is if it is interesting in general and captures a random reader. What is relevant? Why does someone share their subject and why would anyone read it? PERSONAL SUBJECTS In the realm of human nature and what we all strive and live for, certain subjects just keep coming up. Let's list them for reference and

blogging: MY POINTS CAME ALIVE?
- 01/22/20 06:38 PM
It was a quiet, I was tired and I decided to spend the rest of the evening reading before finally nodding off. I bid farewell to ActiveRain via my laptop and gave it permission to enter the sleep mode at its convenience. In other words, I gave it the rest of the night off. A few hours later, I heard noise coming from my laptop. As I opened the lid, ActiveRain page came up and a character made entirely of my points appeared. What? Who are you? My name is..... POINTDEXTER Is this ActiveRain Support? Fellows, knock it off its late. Pointdexter responded: I am your 2.5

- 01/17/20 11:03 AM
How profitable it is to know and be known to all who are involved in doing so. Welcome Rainers and here is another opportunity to do so in the form of a challenge with points (yay) and benefits to both the player and their chosen post-author. You see we are going to take anyones posting or blog past or present and lime-light it. Let me explain so we can get this going THAT POST WITH THE MOST We have all seen them and even have written them. Those special postings that make a point, present or clarify an idea, become informative or inspirational, lend education or

blogging: FOR THE LOVE of POINTS (addict-rain)
- 01/02/20 07:30 PM
This post is just for fun so no hate mail please LOL. I was reading the Q & A which is controversial at this time and laughed when the subject of points came up. It made me remember when I was a point-addict and monitored closely points coming and going. There was a reason for it i.e. to save some money using the point system achievement program. Another reason was.... FUN FUN FUN I remember playing silly amusement games in Coney Island, Redondo Pier, Pomona Fair, and even at Chuck E. Cheese pizza places to name a few. They all had something in common. If you won at

blogging: ACTIVE-OZ LOG-IN TO SEE THE ACTIVERAIN WIZARDS
- 11/22/19 08:49 AM
If Dorothy, the Scarecrow, the Lion and the Tin Man were here and alive today, they would all have ACTIVERAIN ACCOUNTS. Yes, they would log-in, have profiles, check the feature pages and then OFF to see (?) where they can add all their comments, surf blogs or post! Their yellow brick road would include their keyboard and mouse to be sure AUNTIE EM WOULD BE PROUD It may interest you to know that Dorothy has a built-in mouse into her shoes that most people wouldn't know about. She just has to CLICK CLICK CLICK and she is returned to her home page no problem. It

blogging: EGG BLOG (not nog) THIS TIME OF YEAR
- 12/11/18 03:05 PM
NOT EGG NOG but EGG BLOG is correct. I did a post two years ago called GIVE THE GIFT OF AN ACTIVERAIN POST. Give a blog to that special someone or someplace or to mark an occasion or share an event. Give a blog and explain what that subject matter means to you and why. When one takes the time to write about something special and then present it to a person, is this not true gifting? THINKING OF YOU We are saying I know you, I know of you and I appreciate you whatever or whoever that is. You bring good cheer

blogging: ACTIVERAINS MILLIONAIRES
- 04/21/17 09:55 AM
In California when checking the leader-board, there is nothing but millionaires in the top category. You must realize that those points were earned not found or bought making Californian ActiveRainers one of the most competitive online. These people don't sleep, take prisoners or waste a moment. Their blogging pedal is to the metal DON'T GET THEM STARTED In this group, if someone tries to breakout using some sophisticated move or genius strategy, they may get ahead in a burst but not for long. You see it is like a group of birds or prairie dogs out in the open. One little scurry or activity and there

blogging: Rainers: I SEE A "2" INSTEAD OF A "1"
- 12/07/16 05:10 PM
NO...I did not drink excessive eggnog, over-eat, or wear out my prescription for my glasses. Nothing that simple. Instead, after so many years which seem like a blur of months, instead of looking at my 1 (one) million plus points everyday and not paying it any attention, I looked today and something caught my eye. It now reads 2.....! THAT'S TWO MILLION I remember signing up, getting points and having to pay my dues at that time to join to ActiveRain to blog. I gladly did as it was too much fun to not to PLUS blogging was here to stay. So ActiveRain became my preferred

For years now, I have been a member of ActiveRain site & have been enjoying all the perks & privileges that compliment the business world of Real Estate transacting & all those that participate in it or are related to it along with interesting pot pourri. Well balanced subject matters with comments keep all who engage current & up to date on what is going on & why in the the vast arenas of Real Estate, life & all the peoples involved SOURCES I have noticed that every time I get a Realtor magazine, all of the subject matter is old news. Why? It was already

blogging: IN-ACTIVERAIN or INACTIVE-RAIN?
- 01/16/16 02:52 AM
There are two messages being conveyed in the title here. Do you get them? Let me help. First, there are those that are enrolled participators in this Real Estate centered "plus" site that give and take daily when they log-in. Then, there are those that are members, visitors or belongers but not activated just existing. PASSIVE RAIN Light RAIN, perhaps no RAIN at all, these members choose to belong and perhaps read or peruse being content with that existence. To each their own however being silent keeps people guessing including yourself about who you are. Why deprive anyone of this wonderment of creation?

You can be an ACTIVE-REIN-DEER and/or a ACTIVE-RAIN DEAR and all it takes is to do a post on anyone you wish to have a very Merry Christmas and a most satisfying New Year too while you are at it. Visit your favorite restaurant, movie house, shopping center or store or perhaps a tribute to someone who touched your life or that you just respect and look up to THANK YOU SANTA FOR ALL YOU DO Santa cannot do it all so in addition to elves, his good wife and various supporters, he needs RAINERS to take the lead and help him spread the

blogging: SANTA CHECKED OUT ACTIVERAIN
- 12/10/15 01:22 AM
The results are in. They are conclusive and have stood up to rigorous testing by tens of thousands of people (and elves) over a period of extended time and double checked by hundreds of thousands randomly across the United States, South & North Poles and Canada. These tests are self-evident and speak for themselves. Testing criteria to follow... SANTA'S REASONING Santa is officially going on record. He uses one distinct method that has worked all the time and it is simply this: He checks to see if something or someone has been naughty or nice. It is that simple. It is fair too.

blogging: IMPORTANT TO BE FEATURED?
- 12/04/15 11:11 PM
Walking down the feature isle has its rewards. Think: Red Carpet with people on all sides enjoying the fruits of your sharing and you receiving whatever benefits that brings as you slowly stroll along. It has been said that blogging for business is the pay-off. So, someone reads your feature, likes your subject, makes contact and $$$$ follows? WHO KNOWS? The mystery of where our business comes from and why as well as when is always a good subject. Marketing is alive, always in a state of change and movement and we must enter into it running and making sense when we do. A feature is a push in

blogging: HOSTING THE POSTING
- 11/27/15 11:33 PM
By now, many people have found the satisfaction and skill to be able to log-in, enter into their favorite cyberspace place and either comment, post or blog. It is sort of like entering a room with a bunch of business cards or flyer's in your hand eager to give them out while greeting and meeting everyone START Some do it for fun or for specialty but the results are the same. The poster, blogger or commenter ends up being a type of visitor or host for that brief point in time. A good place to get started we all know is ACTIVERAIN. The secret

blogging: FULL TIME POSTING TAKES TIME

For those that can afford an assistant, or who have one, they now can be instructed to join every single social media site, blogging platform and to comment often and consistently. They would have every app, and visit with the probable places that would bring in more business. Yes, this would be a full time job! TIME FOR WHAT? For those of us that go it alone, we have to either be choosy where we go and how we spend our time or we will not have time to drive our operations, guide them and refine them or just plain do the business we

Anyone who posts on ActiveRain sees this every day but do they use it is a good question. We spell check, load pictures/videos, format and then many opt for the countdown to launch and post. Ouila! Another post is out there promoting, edifying and sharing and this appears to be the way to promote ones self. Before you do all that however.. COMING SOON! You have the option to PREVIEW the post. Its up there with the SAVE & CLOSE button to the left and to the far right, is mission control launch button called PUBLISH. At the publish point, you can even

blogging: SHOULD YOU WRITE THAT?
- 09/09/15 12:05 AM
I have been seeing comments, posts, blogs etc. that while allowable are questionable. Not only do they reveal too much but also have a bite to them and even a unsaid challenge to respond. We must remember that these writings have longevity and that the public more often that not is involved. What makes people forget this? WOULD YOU SAY THAT EYE TO EYE? If we were at a gathering of face to face, inflammatory remarks would be less encouraged I am sure. Why? There is more of a risk of a return fire response putting the instigator on the front lines. The immediate result of it

You know why people log-in to ActiveRain? It is the same reason why the chickens all crossed the road. Because they want to. When someone wants to do something, then that something is worth looking into. Today, more than ever, posting, hosting, blogging and commenting while visiting social and professional sites is mandatory and a way of life. Where to go? Where to start? THIS SITE GIVES BACK We all the know the premiere sites to visit with and for what reasons too just like we know what movies to watch and what channels to turn to. It is our pleasure and we seek out

Rainer's on the go! They move fast and sometimes slow but they come and go and after a while, another day has been rained on and in and all is well. Posts, comments and blogs got a work-out, people were educated, edified and supported, and points, the e-wages of ACTIVERAIN were given as well as earned WAIT A MINUTE! It dawned on you just now. For some, later and for others not at all. WHAT? I forget to hit the LIKE button when I visited the posting. Darn! I clicked and entered because I liked the title, person or subject matter.
