New to Active Rain

Hello to all!!  My name is Tom Brannigan, I'm a Realtor in Rockville, MD and I just wanted to introduce myself to all here on Active Rain.  I am also relatively new to blogging in general and I am currently reading "Realty Blogging" by Richard Nacht and Paul Chaney.  My hopes are to meet new friends in the industry around the country, helps others and find help myself when needed, and ,of course, hopefully finds ways to have blogging help with my business all around.  Hello to all and I look forward to talking with some people soon.
