What I Learned at NARLANDO

Something I realized…

A few people have asked me what I learned at the NAR Convention this past weekend and after much thought, I realized that I went to the convention without the intention of learning.

I know, I know……pretty shallow

But how could I walk away from The National Association of Realtors Convention without learning?  That would make me brain dead, to say the least.

• It would be sooo easy to kidnap Social Media Gurus

• A couple of few pitchers of Mojitos can make white guys dance!

• Social Media applications can make people really anti-social

• Hilary Marsh, bka @hilarymarsh,  from Realtor.org is a real, live human being (with a great sense of humor, I may add)

• put some creative real estate blogging minds together and they can plot some crazy ideas – like making @MrMiamism twitter….on Wednesdays!

• If you plug your vendor friends during a panel, like Real Estate Shows or Applied Real Estate Technology or even Altos Research ……you may get preferential treatment like an invitation to the Altos after after after party or a special Merengue dance.

• If you bug Teresa Boardman enough she may come back at you with a
