Do You Have 302 Friends? - 01/30/09 10:06 AM
According to the Journal of Computer-Mediated Communication (who the heck is this?), 302 is the ideal number of Facebook friends you should have to be considered socially attractive. 
(I guess getting Facebook friends is a cheaper and easier way to become more attractive than the plastic surgeon or spending the day at the beauty salon...)
Have a good weekend everyone!

Fun Quiz To Learn What Buyers And Sellers Want - 01/27/09 09:52 PM
Each year NAR puts out a report profiles the home buyers and sellers, comprised of responses from more than 10,000 consumers who recently purchased a home. The report is packed full of interesting information and worth reading, but it is long- want some cliff notes?
Realtor magazine put together this 10 question quiz:
HOW WELL DO YOU KNOW BUYERS AND SELLERS?
I am a sucker for quizes, but I thought this one was pretty good. 
Upon submitting your answers, the back up data they provide for each question is really good information pulled from this report.

Updating Your "Specialities" On Your Zillow Professional Profile - 01/26/09 11:54 AM
On individual profiles which can be set up on Zillow for free, there is an area to include your "Specialties".  This not only helps advertise your services, but also creates keywords to help people find you in searches within the Zillow Professional Directory.

My Favorite Speaker At Inman Connect - Gary Vaynerchuk - Social Media - 01/22/09 08:04 AM
My favorite speaker this year at Inman Connect was Gary Vaynerchuk, who runs winelibrary.tv.  He was a strong believer in the power of social media.
