The city is struggling in their return from Katrina and they are glad to see us. The Cyberprofessionals  had a great meal at K-Pauls (yum!) last night. With a meeting time of 8:30 am (breakfast starting at 7:00) certain CyberPros were setting up their spots by 6:30 am. We meet every year at NAR and once again someplace in the spring to exchange ideas (not just tech stuff) that can benefit our business. Look for the "cool spot" stickers at the trade show on Saturday (Cool spots are awarded to vendors that the CyberPros happen to think stick out)

 

ActiveRainers attending the CyberPros meeting at NAR include Moo from Naperville  (me), Linda DavisLes Sulgrove , Judy Burkett , Allyson Hoffman , Teri Isner , Sharon Simms  ,  Tammy Simms , Wayne "Shorty" Short , "Special" Ed Haraway,  Cindy DiCianni , Jerry Fowler and Wynne Achatz  Of course ActiveRain is one of the topics of conversation.

I'm convinced that they want us here in New Orleans so bad that Harrah's even let me win last night....

Wow!  Great minds think alike.  I think we blogged within seconds of each other!

One of the neat things about the Cyberprofessional group (and there are many) is that we believe business is king.  So - cell phones are ok - you just leave the room to talk; checking e-mail is ok; blogging and reading ActiveRain comments is ok.

Moo, it looks like everyone is blogging.  Concentration frowns, brows furled...hummm thinking "what shall I write?"

Keep the good moos coming.  I'm hungry for it!

Angus - thank god you blogged where the h_____ have you been! lol    It looks like a lot of fun Moo, now the important question: what did you learn from Cyberpros this year and ..... what did you eat at KPauls????

11/09/2006 02:31 PM by Carole Cohen Realtor®, ePRO (Howard Hanna Cleveland City Office)


Angus, you are suppose to be listening to the presentations.only joking..we all are playing hookie off and on!

11/09/2006 03:00 PM by Teri Isner GRI, CRS, CIPS (Keller Williams Celebration)


Rudy - Thanks for the mention - we introduced your blog at the meeting today on the big screen

Toby - Not a stupid question the CyberPros are a professional group that I belong to... visit the site to get more info. The group started in 1995.

Carole - I had an intense transferee weekend, four days of morning to night running...

Hey Moo,

can you tell us about the "cool" things you see on the convention floor.

Especially those interesting cool products, and yeah, they can definitely be geeky.

11/09/2006 06:55 PM by Eileen Landau, ABR, CRS, e-PRO (Realty Executives, Pro/Team)


angus - wow! that is wonderful! thank you so much.

how's everyone doing down there? make sure to take lot's of photos. maybe you can create a nardi gras 06 flickr pool of pictures - this way we can all share the experience with you. maybe everyone who writes a nardi gras post can "tag" it "nardigras06". this way we can easily find it in a search via our feed readers or on any search engine.

thanks again angus :)

Angus:  Is that some of the active rainers in that picture?  Oh it is getting late and I do have to admit, your first name is making me hungry.  Good night folks.  Have a great time in New Orleans.

11/09/2006 11:05 PM by REZ REZ (REZ)


Rudy - your blog is awesome! It was cool to share it

Nima - The front two people... the woman on the right is Linda Davis and the one on the left is Judy Burkett everyone else is a little too far away to see.

11/10/2006 10:19 AM by Angus in Naperville IL (RE/MAX Affiliates)


Thanks Jennifer, last night wasn't quite as profitable... in fact you might call it a slight set back

:)

Moo, I rang my budha bell for you (good luck at the tables, slots, whatever it is that u are choosing lol)  So is Cyberprofessionals still going on or are you now in the midst of NAR Convention stuffs? Inquiring minds STILL want to know. 

And someone please report on food! 

11/10/2006 02:45 PM by Carole Cohen Realtor®, ePRO (Howard Hanna Cleveland City Office)


Hi CyberPros, I think I see my empty seat. I so miss you all. Take great notes and keep having fun.

Eileen - Not a lot of new stuff at the show - the 1031 people were all over the place. Lots of direct mail stuff. Some web-site people etc... I signed up for some small things. Most of what I got in value came from the face to face meetings with other people and talking about what's working and what's not. I'm in the mode of re-evaluating a lot of what I'm doing, I've got a lot of duplication and extraneous projects in my business.

Carole - good job with the buddha bell, I'm up about $800.00 and think I'll stay away to keep it there. 

Margaret - We'll have fun in New Mexico in the spring!

Moo, great to have met you at the AR meeting.  Looks like you have been busy roaming the convention.  We've been enjoying ourselves as well.  can't wait to see what you have to say about all the events you will be attending.  

11/13/2006 04:28 PM by Mary McKnight (1parkplace)


Looks like you enjoyed the respite; especially, the activity mentioned in your response to Carole.

Am interested in your reevaluating mode; give me a call sometime when you have time/are in the mooood.

Mary - It was great to meet you too...and your husband! You two have a great business together and people will continue to flock to your business because of your style and knowledge. BTW I like the darker hair...

Ed - As always... happy to share (except in the gaming receipts that is...)
