Some Neat New Blogs

Posted November 27th, 2006 | View Comments

I just enjoyed visits and/or links from some bloggers whom I’ve met for the first time, with some neat new area blogs. Peter Scott, who’s launched a new blog for the Carmichael area, was good enough to notice my tongue-in-cheek anti-bubbler statistic.

By the way, there seems to be a raging debate in the real estate blogging community — which I fast appear to be losing — as to whether the correct epithet is “bubbler” (as I contend) or the more common “bubblehead“, (which is fast gaining ground in Arizona). Either way, it denotes those cheery fellows who earn their living the honest way: garnering Adsense clicks from readers who enjoy their predictions that the human race will give up the need for housing by the year 2005 — woops, too late now, better start being homeless before the hard landing hits.

Also I wanted to thank Diane Cohn, from whom I just saw a link come through. I think it may just be that Diane’s got a new URL going — Diane’s been actually blogging for some time about Real Estate in Reno, and I want to say we met awhile back, but anyway Technorati just flagged the link for me so thanks, Diane.

I feel pretty old school in a way, seeing that all these bleeding edge bloggers are running videos on their blogs, and here I sit with the blogological equivalent of an amber monocrhome monitor or dumb terminal or something. Well, you whippersnappers, back in my day we blogged in assembly language and were happy to do it, too! Back then we called sandwiches flat breadies, and blogs were known as Webbo Newspapers.

    Thanks for the linkage John.

    As you’ve seen, the “Bubbleheads” have been on the rampage in Phoenix lately. Appreciate your response to the whacko commenter on my blog. Nicely done!

    *Great* blog you have here! I’m off to add you to my blogroll.

    Wow, thanks for that! I’ll add you on mine as well within the hour.

    I should be grateful and point out that here in Sacramento we have a really nice and fairly balanced commentator on the market in the author of Sacramento Landing. I’ve had my share of heated discussions with some of his (and my) readers, however. But nothing as virulent as that idiot on your blog — I thought I had to weigh in on that one.
