I hate to sound like a commercial for apple computers but if you don’t already own one, get one now. Your reason: The new Leopard operating system blows any operating system out of the water and more importantly will make you more efficient.

Why do they need crowd control at the Apple Store on 5th Avenue in New York?This picture was not taken on “Black Friday” or even on the day the I-phone was released. I took it on a normal Saturday morning, about 20 minutes after the store opened up. The store was … (8 comments)
Heads up to anyone thinking about buying an HP product! I purchased a laptop mid August and my hard drive failed after just 2 months. When I called HP for help I was told I had to do a recovery and since that would wipe out all of my data that I should to … (1 comments)
Ok - so I've been gone for a couple of weeks... I have a really good excuse ---
Over the years, I have nursed my sweet computer. I have upgraded his RAM to 1 GB, installed a new hard drive and pushed, shoved and tweaked him into behaving. He has served me well. Every time a flashier product came on the market, I'd be tempted by the bulging muscles, … (13 comments)
It seems that no matter how hard we try, we just can't keep up with technology. I've had several computers and never thought too much about the monitors. 
Automatic updates make PC's run WILD or NOT?
I recently wrote a post regarding technology and Generation Y. Today I saw a video interview on Inman TV with Keith Garner, who is the Managing Director for the Center for REALTOR® Technology of the National Association of REALTORS®. And in the interview he gives his take on technology and our … (1 comments)
RETHINK IT... Electronic waste is unwanted computers, monitors, televisions, audio equipment, printers, and other home electronic devices. Technological advances for all electronic equipment -- particularly computers -- quickly render them obsolete. Only about 14% are reused or recycled, while most are disposed of or remain in storage. The average life span of … (3 comments)
I am posting this blog from my new Lenovo tablet PC X61. This is my latest tech addition and it is one piece of technology that I have not seen many agents in my market utilize. The benefits of this computer are too numerous to list in one post. I decided … (4 comments)
I must say that this seems a little pathetic, but still funny. 
I need your advice on an All in One Printer/Scanner/Copier/Fax for a home office. My old HP at home has run out of both black and color ink cartridges at the same time so it's time to look at replacing it with a good all in one.This will be for my … (11 comments)

As a continuation of our Back to School Series for we are featuring a cool little gadget: the pen scanner. There are a number of different variations of the pen scanner on the market, but essentially all of them allow the ability to scan lines of text into your computer. … (0 comments)
Safari, the Apple web browser that is. I just found out that for three days my comments haven't been posting. I went back to see what someone said and noticed they weren't there. I started to panic.....I just knew I must of done something wrong and experienced a block on my … (3 comments)
WINNER ANNOUNCED 
Back to School is a great time of year. Families rally around recent grads to send them off to college, and are other students head off for another year of improving themselves as a life learner. For most it is not a time to consider one's home technology. However, companies are … (3 comments)
I think most of us have probably received some (or a lot!) of these:
If the latest technology or entertainment options are important in your new home, add the following questions to your buyer's checklist.1. Are there enough jacks in every room for cable TV and high-speed Internet hookups? 2. Are there enough telephone extensions or jacks? 3. Is the home prewired for home … (0 comments)
In an industry where technology plays such an important part of our day to day operations, I think it's good to take a look back at some of the original technologies that paved the way for the tools we all use in our lives today.So I'm going to turn back the … (0 comments)
Back in November I began my Live in Los Gatos blog, and since then I've included information on neighborhoods, homes, history, events, the housing market, and even haunted houses in town. Last night, though, I felt inspired to be a little more personal, so I discussed in today's entry a bit … (3 comments)

What a mystery it is. We have a wonderful trainer in our real estate office, Midori Miller. She works in all three of Century 21 Sundance Realty offices (everyone from the Sundance team needs to remember to thank Nancy for Midori), there are times we almost pull her apart. She has a wonderful knowledge of … (4 comments)
Ok...this is a play on what three things (books, music, people) would I want on a desert island. Going back to yesterday's thought provoking experiment I'm thinking about which tech items, for me, are most important and necessary.1) Yeah...I'd need my computer. No question about that. I've had Macs and Dells … (4 comments)
By Stan Beer Friday, 02 February 2007 It appears that Microsoft's new operating system Windows Vista is too smart for its own good. A blogger has found that Vista's speech recognition system is good enough for hackers to issue security breaching commands using malicious sound files on rogue websites.One of less touted features … (0 comments)
I fall in this category, do you? I can not live without my electronic toys (tools).
No, wait, come back here. I didn't mean you should literally back up - but you should certainly back up everything on your computer. Religiously. Weekly, if not daily. Real estate agents especially should do this, but we all should in order to . Why am I saying this? Well, yesterday, my … (5 comments)
After watching the interview Trulia conducted with the CEO of Funda, it got me thinking about why newspaper classifieds are still a major part of a real estate agents marketing efforts. Why? Because that's where their customers and clients look and that's where their sellers want them to advertise.
One of the most frustrating moments is getting to work and sitting there for 10 minutes while my computer boots up. Most mornings, I can get a cup of coffee while my computer starts and Outlook, and the other applications I use regularly open. One way I've learned to save time … (14 comments)
In computer time I started doing publishing work in the very early days. Our first computer capable of good desktop publishing was the Mac SE30 and Apple Laserwriter printer that we purchased used. What a computer that was in its day. We could create all sorts of professional looking black and … (3 comments)
Having stumbled my way around the block several times in trying to decide how and what parts of my business to automate, I have come to a few workable conclusions for me not to empty the bank account and still get the job done: It doesn’t all have to be automated. … (5 comments)
I prefer to work in my private office. Less distractions, agents coming up to shoot the breeze or ask me questions. I come to work to work and that is why I prefer to be in my own office. I have all the tools I need laser printer, fax machine, server, … (2 comments)
Well, I don't know why it took me this long to break down and buy a second one, (I guess it's because I'm cheap!), but buying a second Fujitsu ScanSnap is the best thing I've done to increase my productivity.If you're not familiar with this device, just take my word for … (7 comments)
