We can't escape the bubble - its all around us

OK we are fighting the mass media on the housing bubble. We jump on the web 2.0 to help us be found amongst the 1.5 million real estate agents out there....

Now that's gonna burst!!!! (Was the for sale sign on Active Rain the start?)

Help me I can't escape the bubble!!!!

Hi Bob: Actually, that video was pretty good. I even watched it all the way through. Read the words, even. Bell, no bubble here. I even wrote a post titled No Bubble Here a few weeks ago. Unfortunately for many agents, their bubble has already burst, or is in the process. This coming year is going to be the one where we must work our tails off to improve our skills, expand our sphere, and work our referrals like there's no tomorrow. Mostly because... there really is no tomorrow. Take care...

Suddenly I want to teach the girls to make friendship bracelets.

What color you want, Bob?

ooooooooooooh, you don't read Maureen McCabe. Shame, shame, shame.

I heard a good one yesterday from an economist. It's time to quit lamenting and to grab a latter and start climbing.

Yes, I agree, this is very clever indeed. Thanks for this.

Maureen shared this yesterday and it is great, so good I watched it again. In fact I think I'll use this in training people, I'm sure it will be geek ( greek ) to them.

Marlene, no double dare needed here.

Karen, "work tail off" should apply all the time, right? You're right though!

Sarah, Black and gold please.

Mags, Unfortunately, I haven't read a lot of any one lately...consider yourself double blessed by Matt now. :)

Chris, You betcha!!!

Don, Thanks for swinging by

Maureen, LOL...it's all greek to me.

Didn't I see this some where before?:)

OK OK bad blogger I am...I missed Scoble on Twitter yesterday and missed Maureen's post...I am only following the subliminal message...

BLOG ABOUT THIS VIDEO...

Love it. Hey, I'll go put it on Mother, too.

BLOG ABOUT THIS VIDEO...

Bob, I was just busting your chops and loving that you let me. As I commented on your other post just now, I haven't been reading as much as I'd like either. Work gets in the way. =)

Life happens outside of the monitor...don't be ashamed of that Maggie.

Bob, would people take it wrong if I asked how big your wrist is?

Wrist = Wrist and all that.

In some markets the market is good , but the media only reports the negative.

Sarah...LOL

GITA, Down with the negative media...

I think the bubble(real estate) is over in our area, CT. Not sure if anyone else has realized it here;) We are in a changed market, so yes, we will be working our tails off, and spending less! Love the video!

Bob,

That lightened up my morning!

Thanks for the post!

Frances...either change or get run over, right?

Rick, Not a problem that's what I am here for...please remember to tip your waitress well!

Buying houses on the way up + selling houses on the way down = money for Realtors :-)

You don't read Maureen McCabe shame, shame is right! Did you find it via Twitter? I did. I can't remember which of the people I stalk... I mean follow ooh yeah it had to be Scoble... that had it on Twitter.

It is kind of funny that agents confuse the real estate bubble with the tech bubble.... related because they are bubbles but not the same...

I like the mention of ActiveRain....

Blog, blog, blog it all. You know it is off YouTube... or was. One of the photographers who took a photo of one of the people, Owen Thomas Techcrunch? Or maybe it is Techmeme.. Valleywag... Photog sent a DMCA to YouTube. Big argument about fair use or copyright abuse. You can find the video still. It is posted to Owen Thomas's blog Valleywag ... blogs about it being taken down all over and only a couple of spots to look at it, so they are reaping the traffic.

It is back up on YouTube with credits at the end...I had trouble getting it to play through though... big discussion on Techcrunch about if it is fair use., most way over my head.

I never fallow the drama...find it blog it...find the next one.

Actually I have a top viral videos website plugged into my reader and found it that way.

Thanks for the update on the video...going to find it again. I have it also posted on my braindump blog too.
