You can read all the rules <a href=\"http:\/\/activerain.com\/blogsview\/56574\/Project-Blogger\" target=\"_blank\">at Active Rain<\/a>. I&#8217;ve already been <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bloodhoundrealty.com\/BloodhoundBlog\/?cat=16\" target=\"_blank\">building stuff<\/a> as course material for the contest.<\/p>\n<p>And this will continue. A great many very interesting people campaigned to compete with me in this contest. I picked Teri because she was game and fun, and because she was the greenest candidate overall, both as an agent and as a weblogger. But, even though I could only pick one co-contestant, everyone is invited to play along with the BloodhoundBlog team.<\/p>\n<p>How&#8217;s that? Because we&#8217;re going to conduct the entire contest in public, of course. I&#8217;m sure Teri is aghast to discover that she is now a BloodhoundBlog contributor. I didn&#8217;t tell her I was planning this. Her charge, going forward, will be to talk to us about the challenges she faces as we build a weblog for her back in Dayton. Meanwhile, I cannot keep my own trap shut, so you can figure pretty much everything will get blogged about by one or both of us.<\/p>\n<p>I don&#8217;t care if we win. Cathy will just give the prize money to indignant cats. But I <i>do<\/i> care that we do this job properly. Teri is her own person, and there is only so much I can teach her. But I will endeavor to teach her &#8212; and you &#8212; everything I know about real estate weblogging.<br \/>\n< ?php include (\"REWL101.php\"); ?><br \/>\n<!-- technorati tags start --><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:right;font-size:10px;\">Technorati Tags: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.technorati.com\/tag\/blogging\" rel=\"tag\">blogging<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.technorati.com\/tag\/real estate\" rel=\"tag\">real estate<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.technorati.com\/tag\/real estate marketing\" rel=\"tag\">real estate marketing<\/a><\/p>\n<p><!-- technorati tags end --><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Let&#8217;s get the introduction out of the way first, a brand new BloodhoundBlog contributor: Dayton, Ohio, is the life-long home and territory of Teri Lussier, the newly-minted Realtor become newly-minted real estate weblogger who is Greg Swann&#8217;s co-contestant in Active Rain&#8217;s Project Blogger.
