(now isn&#8217;t <u>that<\/u> a compelling make-you-want-to-read-it opening?) I got a call today from my friend and fellow agent, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thosecallaways.com\/\">JoAnn Calloway<\/a>. She had been getting conflicting information regarding what is likely to happen with interest rates and the immediate possible changes to our marketplace. She was pretty sure I would know what was going to happen next. I don&#8217;t like to disappoint, so I want ahead and knew (no major changes to her market due to the sub-prime fallout). After I told her, she wanted to know how I knew. I told her I read BloodhoundBlog. That is how I knew. Yes, there are other posts on other blogs, but I find out about those posts and blogs by reading BloodhoundBlog. In this case, it was just a few posts, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bloodhoundrealty.com\/BloodhoundBlog\/?p=1776\">this one<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bloodhoundrealty.com\/BloodhoundBlog\/?p=1764\">this one<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bloodhoundrealty.com\/BloodhoundBlog\/?p=1775\">this one.<\/a> Okay, it wasn&#8217;t just those posts &#8211; it was those posts, in combination with the <em>comments<\/em> to those posts. For example, when Greg showed the graph in <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bloodhoundrealty.com\/BloodhoundBlog\/?p=1776\">this post<\/a> and I saw <a href=\"http:\/\/21stcmb.typepad.com\/\">Dan Green&#8217;s<\/a> comments linking to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bankrate.com\/brm\/graphs\/graph_trend.asp?tf=91&amp;ct=Line&amp;prods=1&amp;gs=275,250&amp;st=zz&amp;c3d=False&amp;web=brm&amp;cc=1&amp;prodtype=M&amp;bgcolor=&amp;topgap=&amp;bottomgap=&amp;rightgap=&amp;leftgap=&amp;seriescolor=\">this graph<\/a> I was able to get a pretty good idea of what was going on as a result of what was being heralded by some as the end of the world as we know it.
