Technology Does Not Drive Change, It Enables Change

Our Island Real Estate is now on Facebook. In setting everything up, I realized I haven’t posted anything in a while. For starters…

You can now find Our Island Real Estate on Facebook! 

So the plan is to add Photo’s, News Updates, links to our agent’s blogs (currently Lasher’s List and The Real Estate Ledger), and everything in between. As a techie, it’s great to have been approached with the idea of moving our company to this social platform. It’s truly a unique way for businesses to reach their audience. The world has been getting very impersonal. You send out emails, maybe a phone call, but few people really put themselves out their for their customers to know. Maybe they’re hiding something… or maybe they never had a venue to accomplish this.

I’m looking forward to administrating the Our Island Real Estate page on Facebook. There are countless applications you can add to accomplish nearly everything you can think of. And the stuff you want to do but can’t?… well I get the opportunity to develop it. Facebook has it’s own programming language (FBML) that I really haven’t had a chance to work with. Hopefully (actually It’ll probably end up being a huge undertaking) get to develop some applications to significantly advance technologies being used in Real Estate.

From paper catalogs, to email, to the internet, to social networking… REALTORs are also moving ahead.

It makes you wonder what’s next?
