What Was YOUR Best Post of the Year?

Kevin Tomlinson's Blog Award

I just did my last post of the year. I sat back and pondered and really, really liked the post for many reasons. Five minutes later, and even more proud of myself, and my post, I deemed it, in my own head, my best post of the year! I know it's short, and you may not see what I see, but that's ok.

I'm not writing this post to pat myself on the back, I'm curious to know what YOU thought was YOUR best post of the year. You don't need any explanations or criteria---give me your gut instinct!

I'd find it interesting to read what YOU think is "good stuff"--and we can all share our best works!

Happy New Year.

What a fun post to end 2008 with, Kevin. I think I liked my Get Out There and Vote post, best. It was one of the most interesting election years that I can remember in, like, forever! It was nice to be passionate about a candidate instead of voting for the lesser of two evils (which seemed to be what I have been doing for the last few elections). It doesn't matter whether your candidate won or not. You have to admit that it was an electrifying year, to say the least!

Hey, Kevin. No reason, exactly, but I liked my Kids Having Fun and Raising Money in Edmond post the best. Thanks for giving me a reason to look back over what I've written so far. It was fun.

I really don't know which one was my favorite post of the year - I think it was one that I ultimately had to take down, because it was so controversial and my broker was pissed at me for leaving it up :) - it was a post on how we need to take overpriced listings off the market and that we need to be encouraging sellers who have no real reason to move (other than "they want to") just to stay put if they are in a house that probably won't sell at the price they want. I had a couple of sellers call me very upset and also their Realtors as well - but strangely enough, I noticed they pulled their homes off the market shortly after my post :)

Happy New Year!

I think some of my best posts are the ones I don't actually post. Why? Because I decide that they are not how I want potential clients to read. They allow me to let off steam over a comment someone has made or a news article I have read. Then they go in the circular file and I stay the course of creating posts that have made my phone ring and 2008 be a successful year.

My best post was the one I wrote and then deleted. Because if I sent it, I probably would've been sued!!

Kevin - Good question. I'll have to ponder that and be back. I'd have much more to choose from if you had asked what my worst post of the year was:)

Okay Kevin, here is one that I enjoyed writing - and will very soon - update. Though it's difficult to say which is MY FAVORITE, i'm settling on this one: TipsandPiecesofthe-Puzzlethataregoodtoknow-What-Say-You!

I suspect one of my reasons for liking it so much is how much it has helped others figure their way through the Active Rain maze! ;-)

Happy New Year Kevin!

I did 2 related posts about 'partners'...Both had some interesting comments...Bottom line was that my partnering with another Realtor was a very good thing for both of us.

Kevein, Every post I wrote was a master piece but if I had to narrow it down it was this one that really captured the essence of life.
