My Happy Place - RE BarCamp and Triple Play in Atlantic City!!!

Does it get ANY better than an RE BarCamp and Triple Play all in the same week?!!! No, it doesn't. For those of you already planning to attend ... let me say > GOOD MOVE! For anyone still on the fence > OH COME ON!!! There are so many cool things you will miss ...

1. RE BarCamp Atlantic City or #REBCAC - Monday, 12/7, 5pm to 10pm at GAME ON! at the Pier at Caesar's (registration starts at 4pm)

First of all, this event is FREE. Besides that, RE BarCamps r-o-c-k. Why? Where else can you get in a room with other real estate type folks that know tons of great technology information?! Hang out and learn from some of the smartest people I have ever met. After attending the RE BarCamp in Philly back in May and watching/listening to several more online, I can honestly tell you that this will be worth your time. Get the details here and don't forget to RSVP!!! Look for me and Chris at the registration table.

2. Triple Play or #TP09 - Tues 12/8 thru Thurs 12/10 at the AC Convention Center

I heart Triple Play. For less than $100 you can access 2.5 days of top-notch education sessions, networking events and so much more! Some of my favs include: Doug Devitre, Amy Chorew & Bill Lublin, but there are tons of great educators. Come early and get some CE credits out of the way or grab a new designation. Triple Play is a steal. Take advantage of it! Get the details here.

3. PAR YPN Networking Event - Weds 12/9, 6:30pm at Bally's Casino

Join the brand new Pennsylvania Association of Realtors - Young Professionals Network at our fun and fabulous networking event at Bally's! Check us out at www.parypn.com!

More on Twitter Lists

Okay, it's been a week or so and I have had some time to digest and form an opinion on the new Twitter Lists. A few tips ...

First and foremost, when making a list - make it for YOU. You can put anyone on a Twitter list, even people that you don't follow on Twitter. My advice here - make your Twitter Lists for you. Translation ... I have a list of favs - these are my favorite people to read on Twitter for a variety of reasons. I did not make this list for anyone other than myself ... just to have a nice quick link to access my favorites. If someone likes my list and chooses to follow it - great - but that's not why I created it :)

Being on someone else's list can be ... a huge compliment or a little strange. Most of the time, being "listed" is pretty rockin and can get you a slew of new followers and great connections on Twitter just by getting listed. Know where you are listed! You can see the # of times you are listed just underneath your username on the homepage of Twitter, at listed. Click on this to view the lists that you appear on and see their creators. You can view the list, follow the list and check out the list maker from here.











If you find yourself on a list that you do not wish to be associated with ... you will need to block the list creator to remove yourself from that person's list. You can do this by clicking on the list creator and then choosing block username.

Have a GREAT week!!!
