Big news… (queue dramatic music)

Sometime over the July4th holiday, FOREM RSS readership tipped over the 2000 mark. A big thank you to all my readers for sticking around this long.

Blogging is a incredibly powerful medium for any small business owner, especially in real estate.

Nothing revolutionary in that statement; but getting started can be a challenge, especially for the non-technical. If you want to get some ideas on how to do it, I’d encourage you to Tune In For Blogging Tips on Monday’s Inman audio call — 11am PST (details on the Inman Blog).

On a similar, note I’ve just helped my wife set up the Portland Acupuncture Blog, where she hopes to write about Traditional Chinese Medicine and the growing TCM community in Portland (we thought for a moment about calling it the Future of Acupuncture – but decided against it. lol.) Go check it out if you’re interested, and drop her a comment, subscribe or bookmark it. Even give her some link love, if it’s in you. Thanks.

Another new blog to keep an eye on – 1000watt Blog. They’re also watching Facebook and real estate.

Google recently called on me to give a quote for a case study they were writing on their Maps API (see New Blog to Keep an Eye On) and the case study is now live at Google Code. I’m a little bummed they didn’t give me a hyperlink but oh well, what can you do?

Interested in the “geoweb” or where maps meet the Internet? Google LatLong is a new blog from the Google Earth and Maps team that you may want to bookmark.

As far as I’m concerned, Google releasing its Maps API was the flashpoint that sparked the Real Estate 2.0 revolution – so I’ll keep an eye on what they might be saying over there.

By the way, Google seemed to like that line… they used my quote in recent case study. (Click here to download and see the page, if you’re interested)

I’ll be off to the California Association of Realtors (CAR) meeting in Industry Hills for the next few days, so blogging will be light. I’m back Friday and so, until then I’ve queued up a few of my favorite posts from the past for reprint. I think they tackle some of the pressing marketing issues facing the real estate community and are still very relevant. Enjoy.

Tweaking my Wordpress install is a guilty pleasure of mine. Every once and a while I get the itch just to tear it down and build it back up again. So last night I rebuilt the FoREM template once again – largely to cope with the growing amount of pages and sidebar content I was wrestling with. Gave me an excuse to upgrade to the latest version of WordPress (2.1.3) too. I’ve added links to the header and footer areas to cope with this and center justified the page (something that always bugged me about the previous template). RSS readers swing on by and let me know what you think.

I was interviewed for the Naples Daily News recently.

Burslem and others predict that the number of online video and slide home tours will multiply dramatically over the next couple of years due to several factors, including competition for listings and increasingly affordable and easy to use software.
