Web 2.0 Applications

My slow internet DSL connection at home is really frustrating but Web 2.0 applications are so very useful tools. I have been using both Rentometer and Zillow for awhile now. I am not sure if Rentometer is going to be free anymore. Also http://www.postlets.com is Real Estate Marketing for Web 2.0

The Realtor as we know him/her will have to re-invent and sharpen their skills, and have a web site of their own. I for sure will want someone who will these tools, besides the traditional and the very proprietary MLS listings.

Not awarded by SEOmoz but equally useful is http://www.livemocha.com/. The site offers online lessons for anyone who likes to learn a new language, with help from a native.

In regards to time management, my TV-watching friends are still going to prefer the couch and a good game or sitcom to interacting and volunteering, since all that requires work. Time to make new friends.
