Summary of meeting and what's next !

Thank You to everyone who attended the first meeting. To sum up,we established a possible need for a tech oriented user group.We also discussed the general definition of Web 2.0. what it is and may become and the somewhat practical uses that it may have for today's real estate agent.Their was also some excellent discussion on hardware such as mobile phone use,software applications such as top producer and sharper agent.We talked generally about static web site use,blogging as a means of lead generation and video as a way to enhance the data for prospective buyers.I could go on and on....It was generally decided that Rob and I should start to define at least some of the different categories of interest and find 3 to 5 sites to start with that the group can review. Sounds like a lot of work but Rob and I could not be happier to accommodate. We love this stuff. This little thing could not have got off to a better start. Thanks again to everyone!!!!! I want to shoot for a November 15 Th meeting at my office...Please let anyone and every one know that they are welcome to attend! Read my previous post to get a background of where we are starting from...!!!!
