It’s 1:46am and I’m kind of up lollygagging around.? Well I take that back, I guess I’ve been productive as I was just over at www.mytechopininion.com which is a tech website for those in Real Estate. Pretty cool stuff over there, check it out when you’re able.? And I also watched a few YouTube videos that focus on some new advertising methods.? I love YouTube to death, I swear…anything you ever wanted to learn, you can find it there.? It’s now the number two search engine, by the way.? Just a little fun-fact.? It’s second to Google.

So I’ve covered alot of ground since Tuesday’s post.? I met with my Realtor on Wednesday and we went over my plans for making MLS offers.? The majority of our meeting was spent going over the Champaign County Association of Realtors contract.? I don’t know why, but I was expecting that contract to be more complex than it turned out to be.? That thing is only 4 pages long and very easy to understand.? I now have it saved in PDF form and since I have Adobe Acrobat, I can manipulate it so that I can do everything electronically, even my signatures.? You know I’m all about using technology for sake of efficiency so it’s on now!?

I mean it’s not like I’m going to close on any of these houses, I just need the letter.? This is a classic, “It’s not what you know but who you know” situation.? I’ll figure it out.

Not too much to talk about tonight. I’m actually still recovering from the all-nighter from two nights ago. I can’t pull all nighter’s like I used to. Maybe it’s because I’m getting old. Or maybe it’s because when I have them I usually have to spend 8 hours at the 9-to-5, the next day versus a few hours at school. Yeah, I’m going with the latter.? I ain’t old yet, although my left knee creeks at the gym.

I just realized that I seem to always fail to keep my word when I mention posting again the next day or whenever.? Yesterday flew-by.? I did blog, but yesterday it was to BiggerPockets.com.? Contributing posts to that site is so taxing, I’ve only been doing it for three weeks.? It feels like it takes me all week to thing of a good post to create.? I try to be as unique and original?as possible while?focusing on a small niche of Real Estate/Technology applications. Uhm…not sure if that just made sense.?
