I have recently been in consultation with several of our Realtors and agents we work with and found it surprising how little about the Internet these guys know. It amazes me because using tools like Google and Yahoo are what sets you apart from being an amateur to being a true professional in real estate. So, I’ve decided to write a crash course on succeeding with Google to get traffic to your respective web pages. Don’t worry, the entire 10 step process is here. No teaser stuff to get you to buy anything. (I really hate that crap myself.) Once you go through it, you will be surprised at just how simple it is. It just takes a lot of diligent, hard work.

Poor Steve Jobs unleashed the IPAD on the kool-aid drinking masses today. In essence, it is a large touchpad with video capability. This is not a technological leap in ingenuity and innovation. However, the only saving grace seems to be the fact that Apple typically produces high quality products and this promises to give you a much better experience than other tablets touch devices and e-book readers, such as the Kindle.

With HDTV display capability and built-in WiFi and a 10-hour battery life, this device will appeal to nerds, rich yuppies with too much disposable income and Steve Jobs himself.  I, for one, will wait a couple of years for the costs to drop. And I recommend you don’t drop your IPOD’s for the IPAD just yet, even though it will run all IPOD apps completely unmodified.

Apple stock is currently down 2%.  I wonder why…
