I live for social media, I <3 connecting with new people and know I've made fantastic business connections in RE through all the various SM offerings such as Twitter, FB, LinkedIn and AR. I agree with you about MySpace though, I never publicly promote my MySpace URL...I'm happy to connect thru every other medium but on MySpace you're likely to catch photos of me a little worse for wear...not good for business! ;-)
you would know that is how Poppy and I met each other...on Twitter.
She loved Roost and I loved Zoomf and now we interact on almost a daily basis. I know this would have never happened without the social network joining us together.
Reggie (from http://www.mytechopinion.com...also husband to Nik_Nik my twitter-friend), had an invaluable suggestion for maximizing LinkedIn. In real estate I may not get clients directly from LinkedIn, but I can use it as a quick source of information regarding market value, consumer confidence, etc by posting questions. I recently had a "green" listing, and queried my contacts regarding what the market would bear for "green" premiums and was delighted by the responses I received, not just from my network but others who troll the site as well!
