Mary McKnight from RSSPieces has come up with the real estate blogging event that will end the year of 2006, the year the real estate blogging really broke out into its own according to Inman News. In the spirit of the season, some of the industry’s top bloggers are switching blogs on December 19th in the Real Estate Yankee Blog Swap.
I liken this event to my own family’s white elephant Christmas grab bag where last year I walked out with brussel sprout flavored soda pop. Ick. I actually tasted it and I assure you that brussel sprout soda is as bad as it sounds. Since I know what it is like to leave the party with the gag gift, I am going to do my best to come up with a nice blog gift for Anthony Longo from CondoDomain.
Yet we all know that one person’s trash is another’s treasure. I predict some interesting reading from my fellow swappers, and encourage all of our readers to check out the fun on the 19th.
So, which real estate bloggers will be participating?
Transparent Real Estate’s Pat Kitano vs. Zillow’s Drew Meyers
RSS Pieces’ Mary McKnight vs. Future of Real Estate Marketing’s Joel Burslem
St Paul Real Estate Blog’s Teresa Boardman vs. Phoenix Real Estate Guy’s Jay Thompson

Maureen - I may be the luckiest person during this “blog-iday†season. I promise never to taste or give brussel sprout flavored soda pop and I hope I can return as nice of a blog gift as you plan on giving us. (P.S. - where are the rulse and reg’s list?) Chat soon

Wow, “THE†event of the end of the year. I better not miss that.

John, you caught me red handed, guilty of hyperbole! Especially considering that there are 12 days left in 2007.
Tony, I presume you got the rules from Mary? They arrived this afternoon. Let me know if you need ‘em.
