Well...yesterday my life was put on hold for about an hour when I could not use my gmail account!!! It made me realize how much we take for granted in this new Web 2.0 frontier.
For instance, I have friends/clients JJ and Jenn who just moved to Austin, TX from California about 10 days ago. We talked on the phone (cell phone), they viewed homes via the internet (virtual tours), I previewed homes and sent pictures to them in email (internet) and they chose the home of their dreams. Once they decided on a home, we needed to write a contract, I sent them the contracts via email using a company at http://www.docusign.com/ (internet). They signed the documents using docusign.com and they were returned to me via email (internet), and finally all documents were sent to them for closing signatures via email (internet)...sooooooooo when I ask myself, "What has technology done for me lately???" The true answer is, it has made my life much easier and has allowed me to help lots of people buy and sell real estate using the tools available to me thru great companies like http://www.docusign.com/.
Thanks DOCUSIGN!!!

It's amazing how you can make a sale entirely through technological correspondence. I wanted to suggest that people check out a site we launched a few months ago called TweetLister. It's a way for owners and brokers to post, manage and schedule all their property listings on Twitter. The site creates a searchable, no-nonesense "Twitter-friendly" 140 character tweet for you based on your listing features, and then links the tweet to a listing detail page with a photo, a link to the poster's website and a contact form. Members can then easily manage all their leads for fast follow-up.
TweetLister easy to use, it's receiving positive reviews from bloggers and real estate industry analysts, and it's FREE. It's not intended to take the place of a broker's overall marketing, whether on Twitter or elsewhere, but it makes posting and managing listings easy, and the listings provide what people are looking for -- location, features, price, etc.
The website is at: http://www.tweetlister.com
Thanks! I'll check into it! I appreciate anything that helps my clients get what they need as quickkly and efficiently as possible!
