Hilarious rap on The Elements of Style – instant classic
“The Elements of Style” Video creator Jake Heller told Poynter.org, “Every year, Columbia Journalism School holds an end-of-semester party called Lucille’s Ball, where students roast the faculty and make light of all the hard work we put in over the semester. I knew that I wanted to make a video, but didn’t know what the video would be.” Heller continued, ...
The secret to writing a great blog post
Years ago, when I was just starting to blog, I often found myself staring at the computer until I was cross-eyed, constantly struggling to write a new blog post. I felt like I was trying to write the next great american novel, and it didn’t matter how much pressure I put on myself, I kept getting lots of coal and ...
The Brand Challenge – Looking Back In My Blogging History
We can’t change the past. Last week, I announced my impending birthday celebration here at AgentGenius. Yesterday came and went without much hoo-ha, jubilee, or commemorative speeches.

I was talking to a friend about an article I was putting together for submission to the Rockin’ Agent Genius. (You’ll have to wait for the details). It was a ...
Profiling In Real Estate
Did he just say what I think he said? Yes, I did. Let me make it clear. I mentioned “profiling in real estate.” Are you scared of what’s about to come out of my mouth? You shouldn’t be. I’m talking about your profile. The little blurb about you on every site you join. The “Bio.” The “About Me.” That “Profile.” ...
Taking the I Out of Blog
(Okay, so there’s no ‘i’ in ‘blog’ to begin with. Work with me here.) This week on the Housechick blog, posts may not use the word “I” or “Me.” Working through my feed reader this morning, there was a post that started, “I just listed a home at…” and that’s as far as I read. I don’t care that she ...
I don’t adore you, I pity you…
Photo Credit Another Hero Has Fallen I know that many of us have written or read posts begging for “niceness” in the blogsphere, and I am sure many of us are tired of hearing the constant rants regarding the big meanies that tend to live to trash other people. I’ve read yet another ill intended blog last night, and I’m ...
