RealPage acquires MyNewPlace: Marriage made in heaven?
This is from a guest post on Mike Brewer’s Group published yesterday. “Every noble acquisition is attended with its risks; he who fears to encounter the one must not expect to obtain the other†~ Pietro Metastasio A curious thing happened on the way home from work yesterday. I was parked at a light and
Taking stock, a personal story, and something pretty dumb
“Age is an issue of mind over matter. If you don’t mind, it doesn’t matter.” ~Mark Twain Taking stock I’ve been blogging part-time for the past year. I started off doing a lot of it over at Multifamily Insiders and still do from time to time. The way I look at it, this blogging thing
Why technology isn’t just for Geeks anymore
This was from a guest post on Mark Juleen’s blog. Enjoy! Let me tell you a story about a boy. 4 foot 11, 120 pounds soaking wet, wrinkled Bugle Boy pants, his blond hair in a bowl cut; tousled. When he spoke his voice cracked and the things he used to say revolved around some
Will automation damage Google Plus?
One of the things I’ve been really enjoying about Google Plus is the lack of an API. For those that don’t know, an API is called an Application Programming Interface and it’s what allows all of those 3rd party programs (TweetDeck, Hootsuite, etc) to interact with the services you want to talk to. Google has done a smart thing this time around with their social network. With their previous attempts (Wave and Buzz) they released the API immediately. It was smart to hold it back for Google Plus. Why?
Weighing In: What’s the Buzz about? Riding the wave that is Google Plus…
It’s almost ridiculous that I even fire up my WordPress window and try to talk about Google Plus. This topic has been discussed too much since the first invite went out last week. In truth, it’s hard not to want to talk about it and even harder to stop using it. My Facebook time has
Getting Multifamily’s head in the clouds
This was a guest post over on Mark Juleen’s blog from last week. Thought I’d share it with you here: The talk these days among IT guys is “What business practices can we push into the cloud?” Cloud computing is, among many things, a great way to save money, resources and helps with your green
Google OS, the Cloud and testing the new Chromebook
Back in December, I saw a signup from Google asking for testers to try a new type of laptop. Of course I was tempted, I’m a geek. Google is always putting out geeky things so it’s a match made in heaven. Naturally then I signed up. Fast forward to May. Imagine my surprise when a
How to kill your old Marketing habits
I was laying in bed reading my son a book. It was bedtime at the Szczytko house. The house was quiet as I relived the tale of Anakin fighting Ventress, that my son has heard a ton of times, when there was a knock at the door. This caused my dog (whom I often refer
New technology I can no longer live without.
New technology can be a lot like Justin Bieber. It isn’t the bad hair I’m referring to. Think about the first time you heard one of his songs. It really isn’t anything special; you probably dismissed it the first few times. The problem is you kept hearing about him. You saw him on TV, in
