commenting: IS THERE AN ITCH OUTBREAK OVER THERE? - 09/16/14 06:50 AM
People on Twitter and Facebook want to know what is going on over at Trulia and ActiveRain. Is there an "ITCH" epidemic breaking out? Zillow wants to know right now before they write the 3.5 billion dollar check too. LOL...No, we are all getting ready to maximize our Internet presence starting now for later and beyond by copying the past successes of having a tag-line
SCRATCH IT ITCH WITH RICH CONTEST
THIRTY DAYS HALF GONE?
Where does time go? In cyberspace, no worries! But down here on the earthly plains, the clock is ticking and has ticked for those that are contemplating getting their tag-line game … (2 comments)

commenting: THE GREAT POST DEBATE - 09/14/14 04:38 AM
Be mindful of this dynamic. If done properly, it is a learning experience for all involved and the public, once clicked on the post or blog is treated to a lively discussion that dissects the issue every which way so that it can be absorbed and appreciated for what it is. Very rewarding when done properly. Beware of the "dark" dynamic where two people go at it personally, emotionally and off subject

I seen a decent post the other day explaining the inside thinking of an industry and someone responding to the negative or attacking the post point. Yes to it … (4 comments)

commenting: THE POWER OF TRANSPARENCY - 09/11/14 05:57 AM
Make no mistake about it. When you are readable, transparent and consistent about it, it leaves everyone better than when you found them for being refreshing and non-threatening. For the practitioner, it promotes a confidence and a feeling of light heart-ed-ness because no additional weight or baggage is at work. What you see is what it is
ON RECORD
When we blog, post and comment, we have taken the risk of identifying, stating, sharing and claiming what we understand to be true and where we stand on our understanding. We went first and we are glad to do so. We weren't put here or sent to … (6 comments)

commenting: DOES TOM ARSTINGSTALL EVER SLEEP? - 08/26/14 11:15 AM
Here I am in my bloggin wagon smoking up the ActiveRain-land freeways and I look in my rear-view and there's Tom! Again? How does he get all those points? How does he move up in ranking that fast? Who does Tom know? mmmm. Perhaps he is just at the top of his posting, commenting and blogging game and when I nap, he floors his point machine?
WHAT'S UNDER THE HOOD?
My blogging wagon can move when I put the post metal to the pedal. It has won many a "feature" race and elicited my share of responses. But Tom has a good formula … (11 comments)

commenting: DO YOU SPEAK POST? - 08/23/14 02:09 AM
Yes fluently thank you. What is post speaking or speaking post? It is the art of making a subject or yourself known in so many quick and to the point words and paragraphs. It is the complete opposite of a LONG story. It is closely related to the dynamic of writing an essay which many people in college had trouble with.
HEY LOOKY HERE?
Getting ones attention to a post is done through the title! It can be informative, tricky, interesting or something in the news already. From there, usually below you title is a snippet of the fist two sentences or paragraph allowing a reader … (0 comments)

commenting: JON ZOLSKY & JON KOLSKY GOT ME GOOD - 08/18/14 09:31 AM
These are two ACTIVERAIN people aka rainers who I have conversed with, like and enjoy and both express some good opinion and write decent posts and comments. I got a call one day from whom I thought was Jon Zolsky but was really Jon Kolsky or to be quite frank could have been the other way around. This sutff can play with your head
WHICH ONE?
I am going to play back with it. So, I visit with one of them via a post and comment forum and who I thought was the one I talked with never mentioned our most recent … (12 comments)

commenting: MY POINT WAGON PULLED OVER - 08/17/14 02:27 AM
That's when it happened. I just pulled over to gaze or smell the roses and low and behold, Rainers on the point highway are coming up fast. They don't sleep normal hours, they eat while blogging, posting and commenting and at the end of the day...they rank and rule. Ahh, but you see I have rested up.
PATCHING OUT.....
I now have checked my rear view mirror, fastened my seat belt, turn signal on and I am flooring it onto the ACTIVERAIN POINT AUTOBAHN. While on the way, I get calls, clicks, views and make myself known in the world called cyberspace

commenting: LETS PLAY ACTIVERAIN JEOPARDY WHERE THE QUESTION IS THE ANSWER - 08/15/14 04:23 AM
It is a brilliant game idea that involves your thinking in another way to participate in a question and answer forum. The premise is that they give you an answer and YOU must provide the question for the answer. If you do, you get points and money, fame and power follow. During this journey, it also becomes much fun too.
Here are some ACTIVERAIN jeopardy Q & A..for your amusement:
Answer: Has well over two million points on ACTIVERAIN and counting
Question: Who is Lenn Harley or Patricia Kennedy...either answer scores
Answer: Fined billions of dollars for financial fraud & misbehaving and still … (8 comments)

commenting: BLOGGING IS AN ELECTRONIC BUSINESS CARD - 08/14/14 12:47 AM
In order to do business, one must be in business. Posting and blogging says you are. So tell me, what is the difference between passing out your hard copy business cards at a mixer, gathering, business meeting, social or promotion and blogging, posting and commenting online and in cyberspace? Letting the public at large know YOU are here is the focus. We are just shifting or broadening how we do it
HI THERE!

commenting: WHATS BLACK AND WHITE AND "RED" ALL OVER? - 08/13/14 01:30 AM
That one has been around for a long while. For those that have not heard it before, the answer was a NEWSPAPER. Notice how I said was. There is a new answer to that question. A POST! You are looking at one now. It is an electronic greeting or type of business card but it is definitely here to stay because it is the way ideas, points, products and services are introduced in cyberspace
DO YOU SPEAK E-TALK?
Posting is a type of e-talk. That's all. It is no different than taking what you would say to a neighbor, friend, family member, a client or … (5 comments)

commenting: COMMENTS ON A POST OR BLOG - 08/11/14 06:18 AM
I welcome them and invite people to visit and chew the post with me and some don't and some do and all is well. Many times someone has commented using a point of view that I have not considered thereby causing me growth. I remain grateful for those lessons. Other times when people comment, they raise issues which allow me to further comment and in some cases, even make myself more clear
LIPS MOVE ON YOUR PICTURE?

commenting: WHEN I WRITE A POST I THINK OF YOU - 08/10/14 04:45 AM
I am speaking specifically of my subscribers. If someone has taken the time to read my post or blog and even comment and then wants to subscribe as a "follower", then I feel I owe it to them to create a certain level of posting and blogging. Its my way of saying thank you. I try to submit posts on subjects that will help create in us a better person or foundation and at other times to make one laugh at life and circumstances

commenting: I WONDER HOW THIS FEELS? - 08/06/14 01:22 AM
To wake up one morning and be able to spend 3.5 billion dollars. MMM, I wonder what I will buy today? Hey, there's something! It's Trulia and its on sale too! Only 3.5 billion? I'll take it. Of course in the small print, it says ACTIVERAIN is included without any additional charge free when you spend over 3 billion. Well, that's a bargain! Where do I sign? When do we close escrow?
AT THE SAME TIME...consider this too

If you want extra points, which boost ranking, camaraderie, child-like competition and satisfy the craving for getting something for your efforts, then entering in and participating in a contest is the way the go. Fun, fame, pleasure and you never know what you will hear or see for that matter. I encourage anyone to look into this and then I hope for you to join in

commenting: ZILLOW WAS PLANNING THEIR MOVES ONE YEAR AGO FOR ACTIVERAIN - 07/31/14 09:28 AM
On September 21st 2013, I was visited by ZILLOW undercover agents who were gathering data in regards to their future growth and potentials. They found out about me because I was an ACTIVERAIN active blogger. A RAINER! Someone hire up said...find out what you can from this guy...Here is the original posting....enjoy
ANOTHER DAY OF POSTING BLOGGING AND COMMENTING..coming to an end
I remember nothing clearly but somethings remain. It was late and I dozed off with laptop logged in to ActiveRain. I remember reading blog after blog, writing drafts, commenting and even posting and then nodding in and out. Then, a … (10 comments)

commenting: COMMUNICATING WITH OTHERS EFFECTIVELY - 07/29/14 07:22 AM
Now, because of the larger ACTIVERAIN picture, we have to look each other literally in the eye when posting, blogging and commenting here in ACTIVERAIN-LAND. I like it. It helps make it more personal and I believe will influence the commenting process for the better. If someone gives into temptation and rants or becomes a meany of some sort, their larger picture says and portrays the better part of them. It may lead to more quality postings who knows?
COMMUNICATION RULES THE WORLD

commenting: EVEN THE MOST STUBBORN HAVE GOTTA LIKE THESE ACTIVERAIN CHANGES - 07/29/14 01:02 AM
I never realized I was squinting all this time until now. NO MORE! I get to SEE all my favorites faces and more without any effort when blogging, commenting and posting. Being larger than a thumb looks good on everyone. If that doesn't make you blog happy, being able to like and follow as well as get extra points for commenting just create a cherry on top of the post sundae
PROBLEM & SOLUTION
Keep in mind that it took time, effort, feedback, input, interaction, complaints and tenacity on many peoples parts to bring us all to this stage. So, the system works if you … (13 comments)

commenting: WHERES THE YOU? - 07/21/14 01:30 AM
If all roads lead to Rome, then Rome has to live up to its reputation. Behind every post, comment and blog, there should be a person who wants to make a point, a mark or leave a signature of some special kind and purpose. One would assume that even in business or personal realms, that effort would be relevant and substantial.
BRING OUT THE BEST
Is it any different than a greeting when meeting or leaving with someone? Do we want to give and receive the minimum or milk the best of the situation? Anyone who uses the occasion of a gathering to … (2 comments)

You have heard this before. If you took X amount of monkeys and put them in a room with X amount of typewriters (today its laptops), sooner or later, they will learn to type and intelligently too. Throw in some Shakespeare and you will get a good copy sooner or later so the statistical genius, infinity theorists and anything is possible groups swear
MY EARLY WORLD
Well not too long ago, lets say prior to me joining ActiveRain, I didn't know how to blog, comment or post etc. I was the early blogger man, a real Neanderthal poster and comment-er who wandered the earth hunting and gathering but not at my full … (3 comments)

commenting: ITS ONLY THREE A DAY RELAX - 07/16/14 08:59 AM
On those 20 posts a week that have gotten everyone's attention good, bad and ugly, it helps if you employ some spider sense as I call it. The spider, who walks on walls, ceilings and floors, when asked her opinion on something said, well it depends on how you look at it. That's what I want to submit to you. Its a point of view
