Real Estate Twitter Composition April 15, 2009 4 comments

My new family is preparing to find a place we can really call home. We’ve been scouring the web taking in as much real estate knowledge as humanly possible and are prepared to commit to a buyer’s agent. We’ve even weeded out a local agent who stands a bit taller than the rest.

Real Estate TwitterWhat I’d like to do before we commit, is compose a tweet summoning local buyer’s agents to contact me. Similar to brands that are alerted of mentions of themselves in the Twitosphere, I’m assuming a real estate professional using Twitter would follow specific keywords, perhaps even zip codes. They can then follow up with the twitterer, offering their services.

When I went to compose this tweet, I realized I don’t know the twit vernacular that will maximize my exposure. I’m thinking keywords would be a start. I’ve also seen tweets precede keywords with the pound symbol. For example, “#skate”. I assume that is to get themselves bunched in with some kind of keywording group?

This is what I’ve come up with. Any advice on maximizing my tweet?

In search of a buyer’s agent. North NJ, NY Metropolitan area. Real estate 07086. DM if that’s you.

  • Wow, can you imagine an internet with a monthly data cap? A dark and scary place.
  • The killer feature is overlay layout: it allows you to stack a partially transparent browser on top of a design mockup or any other browser… The full version of SuperPreview appears in the next release of Microsoft Expression Web.

    Included in Expression Web? I take that link back. SuperPreview looks like something I’ll never use.

What a novel idea, sell your own shoes online! In these tough economic times did Sole Technology stop messing around with overpriced under performing outsourced ecommerce and finally bring it all under their own umbrella?

It looks that way, congrats web dept, nice work!

  • Maybe if the top 3 breweries weren’t Anheuser-Busch, Miller and Pabst, this chart (and the American Beer festival) would carry some weight with me…

Parra Plays March 30, 2009

Parra Plays iphone App

From the developer of That’s What She said comes a game with a touch more class, titled, Parra Plays.

Within Parra Plays are three games so wonderfully colorful, thanks to dutch artist Parra, with gameplay so well crafted, thanks to the peoples at incase; that Para Plays’ purpose as an ad-free gigantic interactive advertisement takes a subtle backseat. A marketers dream!
