I Learn Something New at ActiveRain Every Day and It's Time I Showed You. June 24 - June 30, 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 could be something techie, about Real Estate, about a place or person!
June 24: Gabe Sanders The Most Important Mobile Device You Need.
I love gadgets, ever since I was a kid and wanted a real Dick Tracy Watch. Gabe talks about a device that remarkably we all have but often forget to use.
June 25: Ron & Alexandra Seigel Luxury Real Estate Marketing:Reflections on Freedom.
Alexandra wrote a reminder of how dear our freedoms are. How many out there know anything about Mongolia?
and
Janis Borgueta Olympic Athlete- Olympic Hopeful from Newburgh NY.
The Olympics are about to begin and we’ve been watching the trials. I love hearing the stories of who the athletes are and Janis shares one with us. How many out there know an Olympic Athlete?
June 26 Reuben Saltzman What Causes Banging Water pipes?
We’ve all heard them but I never had any idea what caused them. Reuben provides an excellent explanation.
June 27: Lou Ludwig Some Days It Just Doesn’t Make Sense
Lou is always bringing us great motivational posts but this one is, I think, a little different. What I learned is that often the difference between what could have become a big problem is the person who is left to deal with it.
June 28: Malcolm Johnston Am I The Only One Who Thinks This Is Nuts?
Walking around with a bottle of water has become part of our wardrobe now. If you go to the market it is mind boggling to see all of the different types of water out there. Malcolm presents us with some facts that will make you stop and ask the same thing he did.
June 29: Anna “Banana” Kruchten Blogging From Outer Space-Diary of a space Zucchini.
What a great way to get our youth interested in space than to be able to read the blogs of the men and women in the space station! Get your child (old or young) and show them this!
June 30: Jerri McCombs What’s the Difference Between Wordpress.com and Wordpress.org
I have a Wordpress.com site but had thought about a Wordpress.org site but could never really grasp all of the differences. Jerri explains the pros and cons of each!
Thank you for letting me do what I love to do each day... learn something new!
