It is a special day around the world. Whether you are celebrating Chama Cha Mapinduzi Day in Tanzania, Constitution Day in Mexico, Unity Day in Burundi, or the first-ever Consumer-Oriented Blog Carnival it would only be fitting that we enjoy a parade.
- Leading our parade is the Queen of Consumer-Oriented content Teresa Boardman and her St. Paul Real Estate Blog. In “Sellers, May We Talk?†Boardman highlights the importance of making it as easy as possible for the potential buyers to find your house – especially in winter when it gets dark earlier.
- We move to the northeast for today’s first-runner up in today’s parade. Muffy Myles presented “Maine in Winter†on Newcastle Square Realty Blog and it was a leisurely trip during a “quiet off-season day†in Maine. Muffy had better be careful or those summer visitors might just stay.
- Second-runner up takes us to the desert southwest and Jay Thompson’s “Donkeys in the Desert!†from his blog, The Phoenix Real Estate Guy. The post takes us on a sandy journey through the Whispering Ranch and even includes photos of Jay taking his Jeep off-road!
That concludes the first Consumer-Oriented Blog Carnival. The next issue will be published on Tuesday February 13, at Sadie’s Take on Delaware, Ohio. Submission deadline is Monday at noon, you can submit your article with this easy form.
Interested in hosting an issue? Contact Toby and enjoy reading a lot of great blog posts (and get some free traffic to boot!)
Till next time, enjoy your Chama Cha Mapinduzi Day!

Thanks Toby! I figured Teresa would be here… But I’ve never read Muffy’s blog before and it was great! Thanks for putting this together!
[...] The Carnival of Real Estate is up at The Bloodhound. Greg and company did a typically stellar job selecting the top dogs. For whatever reason, I completely spaced on submitting an entry, clearing the way for others . Greg and Mary McKnight get into a Latin exchange in the comments. I knew those two were different.. Over at Sadie’s Take on Delaware Ohio, Toby has hosted the first consumer oriented real estate carnival. It’s a different twist on the CoRE, which is often dominated by real estate for the pros, not the consumers. Personally, I’d like to see one big giant party of a Carnival with categories than the separate carnivals that are developing (CoRE, RE Investing, and now Consumer RE), but that’s just me. [...]
Thanks Toby, for all of your efforts putting this together. It’s a great opportunity to see what others are doing in the area of consumer oriented blogging. I think it’s time for blogging to leave the world of “insiders” and begin to serve the genral public. The challenge for all of us will be to provide usefull and interesting content.
And maybe, just maybe have a little fun doing it!
Thanks for stopping by Jim! I really enjoyed the post!
