I made a simple iPhone site for myself and some friends have found it useful, so I added (that’s what I do) some place for ads and am sharing the link now.

Basically, it’s just a quick way to access information about the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office. The live dispatch is actually a combined feed from the Douglas County Sheriff, Lone Tree PD, Parker PD and Castle Rock PD. The other resources just lists various departments to find out bail amounts, if your friend is in jail, what lawyers will work best for you, how to make a complaint and so on.

The only novel thing I’ve done is make the Dispatch play in the background, so you can work on other tasks without interrupting the sound. Adding it to your iPhone home screen will leave a badge icon.

Here’s the link to what I’m oh-so-originally calling iDCSO. There are some Apps in the iTunes store that have police feeds, but the Douglas County Sheriff doesn’t provide a dispatch feed to them, this was basically my work around.

Real Estate Webmasters has a good tutorial on how to an honest 301 redirect for a denver real estate client of theirs.  The reason for doing it is honest and it’s a good place to learn the correct process with Google.  Check out Morgan’s article to learn about it.

Royal Caribbean wants you to see a completely different Haiti.  “Labadee” is what’s called a leased part of the island that the cruise line calls “private” and is one of the many places their tanning customers get to visit.  It’s in Haiti.  It’s 70 miles from the devastation at Port-au-Prince.

Personally I think it’s disgusting that after a WEEK, Royal Caribbean has “PLEDGED” ONE million dollars to the relief.  Yes, they have several ships that hold THOUSANDS of people.  Sure, the ships desalinate water at sea.  WHY wouldn’t they AT LEAST donate ONE for housing injured victims?  Why wouldn’t they at least DOCK and OFFER to transport the THOUSANDS of kids orphaned and bring them HERE?

I’m happy to help out Tenth Mountain Division .org integrate an online store to their site.  These are friends of mine, not a client.  They are rebuilding their site so I just want to help make an awareness.

Their Mission is to preserve the artifacts, traditions and history of the WWII 10th Mountain Division; to educate the public about that history, and to present this history where possible in a Living History format for the enjoyment and education of the public. Read the rest of this entry »

Studiomae.com is a small design company in South Denver that is truly unique.  I met these people at a coffee shop and at first glance I thought they were competitors.  After some talking and meeting the principals I found that we are very different.

Media with a conscience is how they describe their company.  Jeremy and Caroline use Dotster for some of their networking efforts and quickly built a video about them.  Yes, it was a contest for Dotster but their rapid development of the video impressed me and some associates.

Web design, video, music and photography. They integrate all these visual and audible components i Read the rest of this entry »

Mike Andruff in Vancouver posted a video recapping the REW Conference in Nanaimo BC last month.  It’s nice to see some friends on there.  I hope Real Estate Webmasters hosts another next year! Read the rest of this entry »

• Because I don’t want to pay for casual abortions.
• Because I don’t think seniors should have mandatory “end of life counseling” every 5 years.
• Because I don’t believe older people (like YOUR parents) have a “duty to die”.
• Because I believe in PERSONAL accountability, not collectivism.
• Because I value FREEDOM.

Because of these things and a hundred more, I attended a rally today at the Capitol building in Denver sponsored by Read the rest of this entry »

Environmentalists are realizing now that with their communist leaders printing money at record paces that our nation will be be completely devoid of trees by the year 2012.

It would be ironic if it weren’t so sad.

But there’s a solution that I’m sure Read the rest of this entry »

I have some awesome friends.  So I titled this awesome post as “Awesomness” – simply becasue that’s the best way to describe them.  Thank you all – you are awesomness.

I admit I’m a fan of the iPhone.  But, unlike those that camp out for days to be one of the first to acquire a new Apple toy (like these guys a week ahead of the release), I am waiting a week or so.

Yeah, my phone has been dropped and kicked a few times – even fell in a toilet, so i do need a new one.

But I’ve thought about the upgrade Read the rest of this entry »

The basic shell for the Denver real estate site is up (I know it needs a lot of work and content, and an MLS system) but that’s just the beginning.

Buyer’s Resource specializes in several niche areas including Highlands Ranch real estate.  Several themed sites will be appearing that will work in concert with the main website.  Again, thanks to everybody putting up with the transition and for your assistance!

I attended the Denver Real Estate Bar Camp conference on Friday.  It was.. interesting.  Firstly, I’ve never seen so many people with hands free cellular devices in one place, ever.  I though I was abducted by the Borg.

One pretty friendly face was Brian Kinkade, a Denver realtor friend of mine that I always seem to bump into.

The conference was set up into many classes, spanning from basically “What is the Internet” to topics called SEO (though I wouldn’t have called it that).

I didn’t attend to learn anything offered on their board, but to see who would be there.  There were some names that have been in the middle of the MIBOR issue, as well as representatives from IDX vendors and NAR.

I have some video and audio of the event as well as an exclusive interview with someone that may be surprising to some of you. I may be posting the interview here soon.

Board of Events: 6 rooms had different classes, running about 1.5 hours each. Read the rest of this entry »
