I have very alpha software that makes a KML file that Google Maps will eat to make something like this: View Larger Map It’s kinda-sorta like ZeeMaps, except I get a true Google Maps map, which I can then customize and embed. I start with a list of addresses, which I can type if I […]
engenu Epiphany #2: A hierarchy of Folders becomes a hierachy of Pages becomes a functional web site
I drafted this article a few days ago, before Greg posted his video demo of engenu. Coincidentally, I think my post here serves as a pretty good introduction to the engenu functions that are covered in the video. I like Greg’s description of engenu’s functionality here. (About two thirds of the way down in the post, below […]
This is a 38 minute video of me demoing a lot of different engenu functions. I got myself slightly screwed up in the middle, because I expected automatic inheritance to work at the level I was working on. In fact, it only works on folder levels below your current level, whatever that is. So when […]
When I saw this a few days ago on BHB, I was not sure I could come up with anything “helpful”. Like most folks, when I first looked at engenu last year, I just didn’t “get” it. In fact, I didn’t “get” it until just yesterday when I decided to take on this little challenge. Understanding […]
This is the second installment from my conversation Saturday night with Scott Cowan. In the podcast linked below, we discuss the procedure to be followed in order to build your own custom engenu skin. What’s a “skin”? It’s simply the visual theme for a particular engenu installation. If you work with the default engenu skin, […]
Linked below is a recording of a conversation Scott Cowan and I had last night about installing engenu on multiple domains. Cliff’s Notes: Each domain needs its own copies of the engenu folder and the engenuComponents folder, including a separate copy of engenupageDex.bin. The advantage is that each different domain can have its own unique […]
Can premium rental homes in suburban Phoenix throw off positive cash-flow at 75% of market rents? An investor asked me that question the other day. It’s an academic problem, really, a matter of costing out typical homes to see how they perform under that scenario. I can do that much standing on my head, but […]
I’ve been talking about engenu for a couple of months now. This is the software that BloodhoundRealty.com uses to build single property web sites for our listings and other web pages and web sites that we use to communicate with clients and vendors. Our belief is that the language of real estate is photography, and […]
I am not a geek! I like geeks. I get along with geeks, but I ain’t one. Let’s just get that out of the way up front and now you know where I coming from. I’m a lucky girl; I’ve been playing with engenu. I’ve been on board with the idea of engenu since I […]
This is my response to a comment that Jennifer Castillo left on my post about the benefits of blogging about real estate listings you would like to sell. Jennifer said: My questions to you arise from this quote of yours, “For each house you preview, build an engenu page. That way you can show all […]
Kicking this back to the top in response to Chris Johnson’s post on bribe-offers from vendorsluts. — GSS Hey, y’all! Are you in the mood for a truly incredible offer? You’ve seen the kind of single-property web sites we do at BloodhoundRealty.com. Dozens of pages. Hundreds of photos. Maps, movies, PDFs, off-site links — the […]
I got an iPad 2 Friday, my spiff for hitting my earnings goal ($1,000 per day, if you’re keeping score at home) in April. The dogs have written a ton about the iPad since its introduction, and my plan is to write a ton more as I get used to this little box. Here’s my […]
That, literally, is a snapshot of my goal-pursuits for September 2010. W is for walking every day for 30 minutes, a little over a mile, with Cathleen, Shyly, Odysseus and Ophelia. I sneered at walking before we started doing it, thinking it nothing compared to a hard half-hour on my mountain bike. But wrestling with […]
I wrote this in a comment a couple of weeks ago: Everything we’re doing on-line emerges from the points of this star: * engenu — rapid web site development * encartus — elaborate custom Google maps * Scenius — dynamic blogs-within-blogs * ScentTrail — CRMishness with transaction management * FlexMLS and the FlexMLS API — […]
