Bloggers Are In A World of Their Own
September 25th, 2007 Categories: The Road Less Taken
It’s been a few months now since I started this real estate blog. I told my coaches at The Tomato that I love it because it keeps me engaged, even in the slow times, in real estate.
It’s opened a whole new world to me. And I love learning new things. I find myself reading my favorite blogs in the morning, instead of the Washington Post. I really understand that this thing called social networking is not just about MySpace or Facebook.
It’s also introduced me to people I’ve gotten to know inside my computer- just by the constant reading of their blogs or the dialog we start with comments.
One of my favorites is Bloodhound. So I was saddened today to find that Lanni Anglin of Austin Texas– a frequent contributor to Bloodhound and author of her own blog, lost her brother is a deadly car accident.
A young mother is now a widow left to raise her children in a strange new world.
The real estate bloggers have quickly gathered the wagons around its own. So if you are wondering what this little widget is on my sidebar– this is it.
Real estate can be a real cut-throat business. We are all in competition with each other. However, when you are in this business for a few years, you get over the competitive nature of the business long enough to realize we are all kinard spirits just trying to stay in business for ourselves. Around the office, I’m often heard saying “We have to take care of each other.” Because if we don’t…who will?
Thanks for posting this Mary. Lani is a very special person. My heart aches for her brother’s wife and babies.
Thanks for adding the ribbon.
