Clearly, you will generate more business at Starbucks, but I wouldn't recommend a sign that says Realtor on your laptop, someone might just pour hot coffee on it! :)</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Ginger Wilcox</dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 24 Nov 2008 15:26:17 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Questions for the Twittering Realtor</title><link>http://notoriousrob.disqus.com/questions_for_the_twittering_realtor/#comment-22451908</link><description>Most agents are not using twitter properly in my opinion.  They all want to connect with other agents, not with their local community.  The emphasis is in the wrong spot.  I do think twitter can be used to meet people locally.  I have actually met quite a few, but I also live in a very tech focused area- the home of twitter.  I agree with Kelley, I don't really use twitter to meet buyers and sellers, but it has opened up a ton of connections for me.  I go to a ton of local tweet ups, where I further connect with new twitter fans and develop offline relationships. These connections are a real source of leads, but if you stay in the computer, I don't think you are going to get much out of it.  Using twitter or any other social media tactic exclusively is a guaranteed way to go out of business IMHO.</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Ginger Wilcox</dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 24 Nov 2008 15:33:46 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: REBlogWorld, Be Part of The Worlds Largest New Media Expo</title><link>http://thexbroker.disqus.com/reblogworld_be_part_of_the_worlds_largest_new_media_expo/#comment-1109013</link><description>It is sure to be epic.</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Ginger Wilcox</dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 06 Aug 2008 00:59:56 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: How Not To Sell a Home: Ask NAR President</title><link>http://sellsius.disqus.com/how_not_to_sell_a_home_ask_nar_president/#comment-8844783</link><description>I don't care what square footage the house and the lot are, 766 days on the market is CRAZY.

I used to have to write out everything I wanted to say.  After a lot of practice, I have found that it is much easier to do things "on the fly" and I actually really enjoy public speaking.  Practicing into your voicemail is a good way to test out how you sound- usually not as bad as you think!</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Ginger Wilcox</dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 12 Nov 2007 22:31:23 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Sellsius Scoop: Reggie Nicolay Named Cyberhomes Social Media Director</title><link>http://sellsius.disqus.com/sellsius_scoop_reggie_nicolay_named_cyberhomes_social_media_director/#comment-3044848</link><description>Cyberhomes is incredibly lucky to have such a talented Social Media Director.

I have all the others ones in my feed reader.  &lt;br&gt;If I had to start over, I would have skipped &lt;a href="http://wordpress.com" rel="nofollow"&gt;wordpress.com&lt;/a&gt; and gone straight for .org.  Of course, that is a scary thought for a lot of people who aren't technically savvy or technically adventurous!  Excellent suggestions for a new blogger and very nice of you to take the time to take his call.</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Ginger Wilcox</dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 27 Feb 2008 09:57:49 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: The New Inman Site is Unveiled, and It Has STRIPES!</title><link>http://realestatezebra.disqus.com/the_new_inman_site_is_unveiled_and_it_has_stripes/#comment-12172858</link><description>All my favorite bloggers in one spot- very cool.

Loved the meme.  My daughter had her tonsils removed  a year and a half ago and it was terrible.  I remember her laying in my lap, completely lifeless (she got dehydrated!).  I have heard it is much worse when you are older.  The weight loss would be one benefit.  Too bad it came back.  I think I better go ride my spin bike.  Got to keep that waistline!&lt;br&gt;You could buy beer at the age of 18?? Hmmm.  what year did that law change?</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Ginger Wilcox</dc:creator><pubDate>Sun, 27 Jan 2008 15:06:23 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: #2 on Google for Phoenix Real Estate?!?</title><link>http://tpreg.disqus.com/2_on_google_for_phoenix_real_estate/#comment-12479993</link><description>#2 no matter how fleeting is great!!
