As reported by no one, today Real Estate giant Zillow purchased Market Leader, one of the largest providers of software and marketing services to the real estate industry and it's subsidiary, the social networking site Activerain for a reported $1.92 and all the false leads we can handle.

Probably through the use of smoke signals, and bottles floating down stream. Up stream communication may be difficult.
Kerrie Greenhalgh along with her partner Lelani, has decided to give up Starbucks and all things technological and will be moving to the Australian Outback where they will begin a years log immersion into Aboriginal culture.

Lauren Bernstein will continue her food, wine, travel and tech passions by buying a vintage 1962 VW Bus and discovering America one break down after another.
When last seen, the staff was drinking beer and dancing at an undisclosed location somewhere outside of Seattle, WA:
The remaining staff members have banded together and will be trekking to England to become extras in the long awaited 13th episode of the Harry Potter movies, tentatively titled "Real Leads don't fly broomsticks"
