For those of you wondering why you write here at ActiveRain, it is to reach the consumer.  One of our members is enjoying broader reach to the consumer this weekend.  I want to congratulate Boyton Beach Florida's David Podgursky who was quoted in Market Watch on Friday with:

His post above was on ActiveRain which leads into the post on his outside BLOG The Mortgage Go To Guy! 

 

                                                                                                                      Way to go David!

 

 

So that got me to thinking that there are some really great posts out there.  I thought I would share with you some of my favorite ActiveRain Posts that I have come across this week....

Kelly & Janie -- You are welcome -- Do the favor Pay It Forward and it a few weeks do the same thing....   Pick a handful of your favorites and do a post.  Sometimes when someone takes the time to put together a post and exposure their readers to other writers it is a great bit of exposure.... and it means a lot more than a gold star.  I know that I am missing lots of posts each day because there are so many writers.  So I always appreciate when I see someone that I like highlight a few writers it is a great resource to go in a different direction...

Margaret -- Thanks!  But it somehow seems anticlimatic...   Not sure what to do to cross over..... Comment, big splashy post...   Funny thing is that I am more excited about the good news for David.   Points are nice, but connecting with the consumer is so much more....

Colleen, The 200k points is an important milestone but you have done so much for the AR community and for so many of the members. You have always been above 200,000 points in my book. No matter what you write, it will have an impact here on the Rain.

Colleen,

Thank you for adding my post to your post.  I found out about it when I received a Google Alert for Crescent City Real Estate and it was your post.  What a very pleasant surprise.  I wrote an offer for an out of towner today who called me because he was impressed with my website.  The internet gets results.

Colleen, thanks for putting together this great list of posts.  I'll go through it when I have a break in my day today...many posts there I haven't yet read.

My creative powers have been taken up with other blogging subject matter this week, otherwise I would have entered the contest too.  Just so many hours in a day.  I see there are some amazing entries ..... 

and Congratulations, David !  Thanks for drawing this to our attention, Colleen.
