While others might consider this shameless self-promotion, we are honored to be chosen for the cover of the first issue of ActiveRain Blog Masters magazine.
I must have missed the call from Matt, probably napping as I stay up into the wee hours poring through the rain. I guess with over 10,000 bloggers they felt it was time to go traditional and challenge the likes of Time and Newsweek.
I'm thinking this shameless self-promotion outbreak might be a result of seeing Bryant Tutas in diapers, or reading too many of Mary McKnight's pointers, or following all of Maureen's comments. Whatever the cause, we are just plumb tickled about the situation.
And now for the news -

If you're on the Rain, you've got one of them covered like a good bumbershoot.
Not a real newsflash for the Active, but worth a read.
Pat Kitano over at Transparent Real Estate gives us
The Zillow View from Wall Street
I met Pat today at the Realtors Marketing Association 's Holiday Breakfast. Anybody that shows up for breakfast with a backpack is my kind of guy. I did notice him hanging around the breakfast buffet quite a bit and the bp looked stuffed on the way out - a sure sign he's in real estate.

Fast Company - need we say more, if you're not there, you're nowhere.
Again, it's a real honor to be on the cover and a pleasure to be the first to break this exciting development to the world.
OOOPs - forgot to thank those folks at BigHugeLab for the magazine cover tool that made this fantasy possible.

Hey John,
It's amazing that we include Mary and Maureen as dear friends, but we finally meet each other at a local event we both occasionally attend. Love your chronicles of the San Ramon marketing meeting because I know everyone in the pictures, too!
Looking forward to actually communicating with a fellow blogger without a keyboard...

That can be done?
We're going to do it virtually by arriving at a designated place at the same time...
