DISQUS

Yep - I think it is. I suspect Marshall might get a clue on this, different people, different applications - neither wrong, both just different. Wish him well for me at SWSX - not there this year; maybe next!

Dang - well past the 50 you offered; put me on the list so i can make some comment on what it does at TheSocialMediaBible.com. Thx Guys!

Great idea - I think! I'm working with a social media team to launch a new site and this may be the collaboration tool we need. Look forward to accessing the beta! As a Austin Ventures Startup Alumi (that did NOT make it out of the incubator) I wish you guys the very best!

Robert,

I am prepping for an upcoming presentation and I needed to checkout Meebo. I do not like that it requires a window open; checking out Pidgin - my girlfriend likes it better, runs an executable. Share my results later...

The band is Roger Clyne and the Peacemakers and yeah, I love these guys. They also did a theme song for my fav sports team, the D'Backs...

OMG Jay - I agree wth everyone else and thank God that the people are OK. Equipment can always be replaced, but not the kids.

I think I'll just put my kids in bubble-wrap going forward...

Awesome and congratulations Amigo... you are a shining star in the RE.net community - well, and any online community!

Sorry to see you leaving the app - was pretty much my default Twitter client, Any idea on how to uninstall it now?

Too funny Jay... is there a tip on how / if scarf might be worn somewhere in there?

Jay - I was real happy for you as I saw the announcement; great platform for article not suited to a local blog like PhoenixRealEstateGuy.com.

The competition question is one I get all the time - as ion 'Gosh, don't tell anyone else how cool blogging for real estate is... I'll lose my edge!'

Excellent response from you. It is a very large planet in a very small corner of the galaxy... Lot's of room for all of us...

You are blessed Amigo - best wishes and congratulations!

Good work Jay - nice list... (sniff) looks like I need to do more work to make your top 25...

Daniel - I agree, I liked Kelly's post as well; if youlike her work, check out the Agent2.0™ model I and a few friends have been working on at Executive Conversations with Steve Groves / www.StevenGroves.com

Interested in one of these meetups here in Phoenix? I've been working with a group of entrepreneurs and technologist and may be able to rustle up a gang of interested people for something in September or October.

I'm with April - ROFL!!!!

Auughhh - not an iPhone... LOL

Well there ya' go again Jay... good job on getting the article Amigo.

Are you sure that's Jacquelyn? It looks like Marie Osmond... LOL. Lucky guy you are with all those beautiful women hanging around you...

Stopped yesterday and slobbered, er, looked at one... I too have been bitten by the iPhone bug... I want one sooooo bad... Just signed w/ Alltel for 2 years. Hmmm... $200 to break the contract... might be worth it...

It was awesome to see you and Greg sharing with those in the room and I was able to meet some of the other local lumiaries in the Phoenix blogging scene.

Great job Jay and I look forward to the next adventure...

Robert,

I get where you're coming from and I also can see where sooo many others can just shake it off and keep plugging - shake it off and get back to it was how many of us were raised; but it doesn't excuse the perpetrators - I read the postings and the transgressors blogs; as of a few minutes ago Herrel shut down his blog, 'RageBoy' posted a belligerent response suggesting the public is incapable of evaluating his comments for what they are and Paynter apologizes left-handedly, while explaining away his actions as 'art'. Who do these guys think we are that we cannot see them for what they are?! Infantile, insecure morons caught with a smoking gun in their hands...

Your comments in your presentation here in Phoenix that transparency and honesty were essentail elements in the commuity; that comment has stuck with me - it was the way I acted / lived before and will continue to, even as a blogging particpant.

Take what ever actions, whatever time you need to get square with the events and I, for one, will welcome the conversation about how the social media community responds to this episode.

Jay, Great job of sourcing / analyzing the data and presenting it here. I'll point at it frequently I'm sure. Thanks for maintaining a greag Blog!
