Where Would David Gibbons Go?

Home, of course. Anybody who followed his World Cup trip to South Africa saw the glow on his face, in his Facebook pictures, and the longing in his heart, on his Facebook status updates.  Social media are interesting platforms.  They have the power to bring you much closer to people you’ve met or allow you […]

Regarding the Zillow.com IPO: “Since when is a seven year old company with really no large scale growth prospects that has lost money every single year on revenue less than $45 million/year worth half a billion dollars? Am I missing something?”

The question comes from a comment to a post at Seattle-based start-up blog, GeekWire. The news? Zillow.com is bumping the per-share price on its forthcoming IPO to as high as $18, up from the $12-$14 range it started with when the public offering was announced. I like that question, because it parallels one of my […]

Satire is an evermore difficult and demanding art. Why? Because the world around us is often so risible as to be beyond parody…

Like this… Unchained was promoted by Social Media Marketing only, most of it here. No advertising. No affiliate marketing. No ass-kissing. No taking crap from morons. No Inman. If the lesson of this is lost on you, then you missed out on the biggest piece of what we were doing this week. I might try […]

Memo to ePerks.com: You idiots! Trying to censor a real estate weblogger is a poor way to defend your reputation — such as it is…

[I’m kicking this back up to the top. At the time I wrote this, I thought it might be enough to make the jackasses at ePerks.com come to their senses. Apparently not. If you are a real estate weblogger, and if you don’t want some sleazoid attorney pulling these stunts on you, you need to […]

A Special Sunday Session at BloodhoundBlog Unchained: Russell Shaw UNPLUGGED (And: Why I’m Going to Win My Pricing Battle With Greg)

Call me a shrewd negotiator or color me lucky but I pulled off a coup for the folks coming in for the Sunday session of the BloodhoundBlog Unchained Social Media Marketing Conference, brought to you by Zillow.com. I was spending my Saturday evening online and e-mailed Wonderful Russ, asking him to give me some time, […]

Brian Brady on RealEstateRadioUSA.com: Mortgages unchained

Brian Brady did a half-hour interview this afternoon on RealEstateRadioUSA.com, the internet radio station for real estate. He was talking about BloodhoundBlog Unchained, but hosts Barry Cunningham and Barry Johnson also probed him about the mortgage market. To top things off, there’s an extensive discussion of the “What would David Gibbons do?” philosophy. I made […]

Why does BloodhoundBlog have a comments policy? In order to prevent my property from being hi-jacked and our contributors and guests from being abused, insulted, maligned and harangued

Dave Barnes, may the gods cherish his every atom, offers up this observation in a comment to another post: Ardell wrote (on another blog): “Greg blacklists and deletes comments when anyone chooses to argue a point on BHB. You can’t have a conversation there or call them out there. That’s the joke of the whole […]

Living up to the BloodhoundBlog mission statement: We’re everything you wish were in Realtor magazine

This is our mission statement: BloodhoundBlog is everything you wish were in Realtor magazine — but isn’t. Damned if it ain’t the gospel truth! Realtor Magazine does a cover story on real estate weblogging — and none of the Bloodhounds are there. Not sour grapes. We’re the big dogs in this menagerie of minds, but, […]
