New to Active Rain

Hello Active Rain community....I first heard of Active Rain at the Keller Williams Realty Mega Agent Camp in Austin, Tx this past August.  I guess I need alot of help with this blog since I have never blogged...I use the excuse that I have been too busy to participate....actually I have probably been too busy deleting junk mail out of my in box for my regular business email address....So this is my first blog...if you would be so kind ...point me in the correct direction....of course the news of the day is the house and senate about to send a whopping bailout for Wall Steet to the prez....hummmmm
