Jon and me are just finishing up puttingthe final touches on the "ActiveRain Blogger's Lounge" at the upcoming Inman Real Estate Connect Conference here in San Francisco.  The blogger's lounge will provide a place for blogger's and anyone else at the conference to plug into some more reliable Internet or just hang out.  We'll have some refreshments on hand to help people refuel from what is bound to be an grueling conference.

During most of the day we will have a video camera setup and have some "special" ActiveRain interviewers on hand.  We will be interviewing the victims the happen to stumble into the room and the video casts will be posted on this site over the next week. 

Location: Telegraph Hill room, upstairs in The Palace Hotel

We hope to see as many people as possible in at the blogger's lounge.  In the meantime here is something to ponder from the Inman Real Estate Marketing Survey.

"27% of agents who closed more than 20 deals in the last year had a blog - not only are they top producers but they manage their time well."

-Matt Heaton (ActiveRain CEO)

Hi Matt, I'm sure you all will have a Super Time!  The statistic about the 27% of real estate agents who closed over 20 transactions is very interesting.  As blogging is still relatively new...I expect this percentage to increase significantly!

I like Cyndee will have to enjoy it virtually. But I like the idea of a bloggers lounge. I think I am going to rename my living room that!

I am seeing the industry for Blogging and teatching about it grow rapidly before my eyes.  Not just for Realtors but all industries.  It is a great time to be in the know.

Rumor has it that there's an event planned for NYC in January.  Can you post the facts on that?  If it's true we've all got to put it on the PDA...
