Real Estate Tomato (Real Estate Tomato):
Some said we were crazy, but no one said it was a bad idea.
On November 17th from 9AM until 4PM PST
we will be holding the first of its kind,
Virtual Real Estate BarCamp.
What is it?
- In place of a rented venue, we'll be holding the event online.
- In place of break-out sessions in rooms, we'll we have simultaneous webinars, all day.
- In place of the hallways, we will be chatting on Twitter, Facebook, Backnoise and TomatoChat.
- In place of traveling you'll be able to attend from the comfort of your home or office.
- In place of an impromptu calendar, we will be filling presentation slots all month.
Attendance is unlimited, and it is still FREE!
And finally, so as to not lose the Social Aspect of the BarCamp atmosphere, we are encouraging volunteers around the country to organize In-Real-Life MeetUps for immediately after the online event. Sponsorship donations will help fund these Social Media Happy Hour style gatherings, so please let us know if you would like to help by volunteering your time to organize a local MeetUp.
As the calendar of sessions and the IRL MeetUps start to come together, we will keep you all posted through Twitter and our Facebook Fan Page.
Block off your entire calendar for Tuesday, Nov 17th. None of these webinars will be available after the event. You do not want to miss this.
