I wrote an article that I think is appropriate to mention here. http://www.positiveonrealestate.com/index.php?s=lifestyle+over+greed I think the industry has gotten away with the market is changing so buy buy buy mentality for too long. Now the intangibles are huge. As well as lifestyle. Ask what part of your life story can you see yourself creating here?

If someone is selling by owner is he not interested in help in selling? If the person who approaches him is worthless, then yes it would seem intrusive. If the person seems helpful, then it isnt seen as intrusive. I had a person show up at my door. Very intrusive. But what she was selling as it was perceived by me was not intrusive and seen as very useful.She turned me around. Selling is selling is selling. When it is done well it isnt selling. When it is blundered it is intrusive, spammy, and scammy. Otherwise it should say order taker on a real estate license.

This is what drives me nuts Danny...spam tactics. What the hell does spam have to do with this? My posts here are not so much about craiglist getting datamined. It is understanding the issue. Spamming is email, or in SEO- stuffing keywords into a page as an example. This is a datamining issue and TOS issue. And it is more common than most would want to admit. My point was why do so many people want to abide by situational ethics, if indeed this is even an ethics issue at all. since we are talking about a machine. Is it not OK for Riel to use a machine to grab information off of his own software for his own use and gain like it is for Goolge to Grab it for for millions of others pleasure so they can make a profit for their thousands of shareholders? Why is it OK for G to do this? Put another way we all profit from datamining that Google does on our behalf.. As well as their own. So whats the dif other than you or I not benefitting from Riels datamining?
