Recently I had an incredibly meaningful conversation on Twitter involving Jeff Turner (@respres) and Ines Hegedus-Garcia (@ines) where we discussed Social Capital versus Social Karma.

The world does not look all sunshine and roses outside of the Matrix. There are challenges here as well, obstacles that I will face, and lessons to be learned from the RE.net Matrix. One cannot exist without the other in our world any more than it could in the movie. But, I for one, can attest to the fact that this world, outside the argumentative noise of existing problems, looks like one with solutions on the horizon.

For my presentation I was asked to discuss “Rules for a Changing Game” and how social media and other influences will forever change the real estate industry. Thanks to a couple of highly influential people by the names of David Armano and Peter Kim I was able to put together the following presentation.

WOMM is still THE most respected and effective form of marketing available, but with the power of the web, could turn against you in a minute’s time. With proper prepartation, message creation, and simple analyzation of past messages for improvements, etc. many of the common pitfalls we face could be avoided.
So this wasn’t what I was planning about blogging on, but I have to put this out there…
Nicole and Reggie Nicolay (@nik_nik and @cyberhomes) have completely outdone themselves and put together an amazing (and free) E-book entitled Everything You Want to Know about Twitter for Real Estate at the Cyberhomes Blog.
And while we’re all hopped up on the topic of Twitter, I wanted to give a shout out to a fellow blogger who I THINK (personally, me…) has probably put together the best list of Twitter Applications around.
Twitter apps are all over the place. Whether hooking it up to FriendFeed so that your updates feed to your Facebook status, or a simple widget that resides on your blog to keep your readers up to date (see right sidebar!) these applications allow you to utilize Twitter more effectively and really harness the power of the site.
