• A New Google Page for (real estate-ish) Web 2.0 Tools

  8/31/2006

  

  Pro made a tools page for you guys to bookmark and refer to periodically.  From now on, a list of resources and Web 2.0 tools can be found there.  There are so many tools that come out, that its hard to keep track of them all.  Thats why I try to only pay attention to those that might be useful to real estate agents.   We can all help each other grow into the next this technical age.
  If you have something that you would like to add, please to write me. 
  
  [btw.  I made said page from a Google Pages.  It can be created through (and attached to) your gmail account. If this is confusing, let me know.  As you know, happy to help.  Good Luck Pros!

• Use this Gmail hack to Convert PDFs to HTML

  8/28/2006

  
  Tired of watching your poor computer practically putter out when trying to open a PDF file?  Real estate people get a LOT of PDFs!
   Try this: Use your gmail account to instantly convert that PDF into an HTML document!   You can do this in at least 2 ways.
  
  The first way (as described by Labnol) is to upload the document as an attachment in a Gmail message, then email it to yourself at the same account.  Check your inbox.  You have mail (from your former frustrated self)!  Open the message and click on "view as HTML."  Now congratulate yourself for being so smart.
  The second way is something that i came up with tonight.  remember a while back when i told you about GDrive  (don't forget the Firefox extension that lets you use your Gmail account as a file server-GSpace)?  Get the extension. Log into your account through the FTP and then search your computer for PDFs.  Once you've uploaded what you like to your account, go to your inbox and send yourself the emails containing the files that you want to convert.  Now, sit back and congratulate yourself for reading this post.
  
  Oh yeah...you can use this technique for many types of documents other than PDFs. Labnol points out a few for you:
  

  (MS Word .doc, Excel .xls, Powerpoint .ppt, Rich Text Format .rtf),
  OpenOffice.org Document Formats (Writer, Calc, Impress, Presentation)
  and WML Files (Wireless markup language) to HTML.
  

  Good Luck Pros!

• If your Client uses Gmail, Call Them on It

  8/26/2006

  
  
  Apparently, if you are one of the trillion zillion people out there using Gmail, there's a feature that has been discovered that will allow you to call other Gmail users.  Google Blogoscoped told us of this along with another handy tip about a GTD  ("getting things done") Firefox extension that adds handy tasks list, advanced labels and the ability to save specialized searches.   Whoa....real estate agents should have no problem putting these tips to use. 
  Keep at it Pros!
