There are things we&#8217;ve come up that we want to deploy, and there are a host of half-germinated ideas we want to bring to flower.<\/p>\n<p>On my own plate:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Teri and I need to rebuild TheBrickRanch.com to make it engenu-friendly\n<\/li>\n<li>Cathy has plans for me to build weblogs for our handy-man, for our doggie day-care provider, etc.\n<\/li>\n<li>I have had as a post-Unchained project the daunting task of moving all of our existing weblogs over to WordPress Multi-user<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The last project subsumes the others, and it also creates a ProjectBloodhound opportunity. I have thought that, while implementing WP-mu, I would build a prototype of a perfect-in-the-abstract hyperlocal real estate weblog &#8212; best practices in everything.<\/p>\n<p>And that&#8217;s where it all comes together. I kindasorta hated Project Blogger, because it seemed to me to become just another cliquescene beauty contest, and we never win anything like that. But I didn&#8217;t care about that, anyway. We got a frolicking book out of our efforts, for goodness&#8217; sakes, influencing a bunch of real estate webloggers along the way.<\/p>\n<p>And we can do our own thing now, with no contest to cause distractions: Invite one or a few wannabloggers over to play with us, help to build weblogs, help to build a Social Media presence, help to launch people who want to do better into a better orbit in their home markets.<\/p>\n<p>What&#8217;s in it for us? By helping them, we&#8217;ll help ourselves. There are things that each of us could be doing better. By going through everything in detail, we can figure out what we should be changing in our own marketing.<\/p>\n<p>But: There&#8217;s a catch: I&#8217;m overbooked on blue-sky projects, and Teri doesn&#8217;t want to do this alone.
