I've Always Said I Learn Something New at ActiveRain Every Day and It's Time I Showed You.  February 12-February 18, 2012

I learn something new every day at ActiveRain!  With this series I try to highlight one post per day that gave me that “lightbulb” moment.

 It may have been about something techie... about blogging and SEO.... anything having to do with Staging or Real Estate... about the world or even about the Blogger.  



charles buellFebruary 12-   Charles Buell -  Like Charles, I use my camera on Staging consultations or when I’m out to give a Staging Bid.  But I not only take photos of the rooms but also areas that need to be addressed, such as spider webs in corners, water stains in the ceiling, stains in the carpet.  But Charles showed how using a video helped to illustrate what a still photo just can’t.

 

ben kinneyFebruary 13- Ben Kinney and the IMSD Team-  Who knew about Wufoo.  No it’s not the latest singing group but a way to embed a form in your blog or website.  I’ve checked it out and it’s easy to use.  




cameron novak February 14-Cameron Novak - I thought we were getting great mileage with our Prius at about 45 miles a gallon but had no idea there was a car out there that gets 71 miles per gallon!  Now if we could only get it here.




john mccormack February 15- John McCormack- one of my favorite bloggers here, John writes about New Mexico home styles.  I had no idea that Hacienda was different from Northern New Mexico.  Now I may never need this information in South Florida but isn’t it interesting to know that there are so many different styles.



melissa mckinneyFebruary 16- Melissa McKinney- All the talk in the last few years has been about using video on our blogs and website.  Melissa gives us a site for Video Email!  Instead of our e-Newsletters we send out you could send out some information via a Video email.  We all know most of us are auditory anyway!



nico hohmanFebruary 17 -Nico Hohman- Nico gives us the top 3 remodeling tips for a Master Suite.  One of his tips is not to overwhelm your Master Bath with design features but strive for bold yet subtle.





tammy lankfordFebruary 18- Tammy Lankford-Tammy gives us all a reminder of the warning signs of stroke... one that affected her personally (don’t worry, she’s not the one).  Something I learned that is very important is that if a person shows signs of TIA but they go away, you still need to take that person to the Emergency Room.



Thank you for letting me do what I love to do each day... learn something new!

Cheryl- then it's been worth it!  Thanks!

Joy- we really do have a lot of really interesting posts here every day.

Lee and Carol- It's been fun for me reading all of these posts.

Luis- Good for you.  I don't know how many people would have read them all.

Connie- See what you started with your challenge a few years ago!

Erica- even though I subscribe to a lot of posts I find that there are days when i still miss a lot.

Elyse- Hi! and Thank you!!!

Eric- be sure to check out the car that gets 71 miles a gallon.

Christine- I have to say it's because of Pat Kennedy's weekly favorites as well as Donne Knudsen's weekly post.  I found that they were always listing posts that I'd missed.

Thanks Kathy.  I learn stuff every time I log on here I think.  And I'm very grateful you choose the particular post of mine that you did.  My friend Max is doing very well.  He had NO idea his blood pressure was high (which after much testing appears to be the problem) which of course can be treated with diet and medication.  I learned so much on Friday.

Active Rain truly is a tremendous source of education.  I have learned so much more than I ever did at my brokerages.  The information is so diverse.

Hi Kathy--so much to learn.  I have not had much time on AR this week so I very much appreciate you summary.  I had missed all but one of these and the rest were great.  I look forward to your Sunday picks each week now.
