Can you send me one of those cool stickers? Wish I could make it down to the get-together, but frankly I’ve got some more important plans with my sweetheart for Valentine’s Day. I already spend enough time away from her blogging, so it’s a no-go this time around.

Thanks so much. I trust my colleagues to be modest with the new arrangement, and I’m now got my RSS set up for the VAR Buzz. “Buzz” was my nickname in high school as I was the first dude to get a flattop back in the later 1980s. Funny, eh?

Also I think that since VAR represents its members interests that the VAR Buzz blog should be modified in this regard: it should be a dofollow blog in which appropriate links in comments by real contributors get counted by the search engines as links versus the nofollow format it currently is. This would be more appropriate considering VAR is not some competitor in the marketplace but an ally who is supposed to have some degree of positive impact on the real estate community. Do follow links would go with that.

Of course, 1 line comments with a link would not be appropriate, for example. But the practice should be allowed. Here’s an article by a respsected blogger on the issue from REW & Bloodhound (like Jim): http://www.ericbramlett.com/blog/do-follow-real-estate-blogs/ Actually it’s not an article but you can see from the comments a lot of interest in the issue.

Thanks VAR for supporting us 1st… :)
