Imagine an exciting presentation - full of news about the technical advances planned for ActiveRain - delivered with enthusiasm by Ben Kinney. He shared plans for the rebuilding of the AR site - explaining detailed technical changes. Now, he explained,the code was all stacked on top of itself. That means that if one thing goes wrong, everything is subject to not working properly. The goal is to separate the facets of ActiveRain into "containers" so that if one technical aspect fails that would be the only section disrupted. In terms of "sections" of AR, Ben … (17 comments)

On September 1, 2020, Ben Kinney joined the Tuesday 2:00 pm Zoom MeetUp.
Ben listened to AR members on the call express frustrations with the Blogging Editor. Among the concerns mentioned were slow speeds, the dreaded "504" message and the times when the bottom part of the post would be truncated and disappear from the screen.
Just to mention - those three are ALREADY CORRECTED !!!!!!!!! Plus one in the works*...
EDIT: One more "big step for AR-kind" - 9/24/2020 June's MISSING POSTS and COMMENTS HAVE RETURNED TO THE AR NEST!!!

Last week, Ben Kinney joined the MeetUp. He explained his timetable for the "rehabilitation" of the coding now on the ActiveRain site. Generously, Ben has been using income from his other businesses to support the costs of keeping AR online month after month. With those running smoothly, he explained he will be able to take more of his personal time to focus on AR. Ben announced that he has hired a dedicated full-time developer to work out the problems at the site. He stated … (32 comments)

ben kinney: Why You Need a 'Would Sell' List and How To Build One
- 12/25/16 03:42 PM
Dear Readers - Bob Stewart's description of a system to reach for success is a great option for the New Year waiting around the corner. A successful REALTOR must find ways to be relevant. Knowing the potential in one's Local Market is not the same as Pocket Listings. More like the Zillow "Make Me Move" data... And knowing the potential in one's Local Market definitely is NOT chasing Expireds.
Check out Bob's suggestions and be sure to watch the video! Arm yourself with Local Knowledge and you will be successful! Bob Stewart Thanks - the benefits of ActiveRain … (3 comments)
