Social media may truly be the driving force behind some of the most innovative changes to be made in this industry. That and a business model that will by necessity evolve in the aftermath of this current housing and credit crises. A great book on the power and evolution of social technologies is Groundswell by Charlene Li and Josh Bernoff.

You are 99% correct. A Social & Business approach using the power of the Media is a fantastic possiblity, NOW!

Real Estate Brokers Network (REBNetwork.com) & REBSpace.com is a project I have been working on for about 6 months. But I don't have all the talent needed. I will need help to put it together.
