I have an up to the minute list going. As soon as you post here on AR, you tweet on Twitter and it shows up in the box. Even if we don't know each other (yet).

A good reminder to make sure I complete the profile on twitter. This is going to go to the top of the "to do" list. Thanks Mike.
Thanks for the helpful links on twitter Mike! We recently created a twitter profile for the office, and I have one as well. Trying to get all the other agents on board too so they can promote the local market info, stats etc. Great post!
Guess I better get my butt over there and finish up!
I completed my profile and even have my picture... Do I get a cookie?
Mike... I need to get back into social media networking. I did set up a Tweeter account and haven't used it since then... that was like 3 months ago... maybe 4... lol thanks for the push.
I had a friend on Facebook who had not uploaded a photo.
Sent her a message to add her face to facebook.
