make sure the presentations begin and end on time, and that in itself
is just the superficial manifestation of a well planned conference.
I do note, though, that there are limits to public blogging for this
kind of event. I can't really post anything confidential or overly
critical on a public blog. And there's no use in transcribing my
notes onto the thing. But it may be good for posting notes to self
to serve as a mnemonic.
Notes to self:
The group I was in yesterday tasked with creating at least one innovative
method for out innovating Google/Zillow, etc., failed to come up with
anything. I held my tongue since my ideas are usually considered
hare brained. I was going to suggest that we should follow the user,
and what do users want? A combination of Google, Zillow... and
eBay. A website where one could find information on properties,
accurate sold data and comparatives, AND a place to conduct or at
least initiate an actual transaction or place a "bid." The "Realtor"
here would have to morph and retrain and repurpose in order to retain
a place in the transaction, but why not? This idea could get me
shot. Good thing no one reads this blog.
This morning's legal panel was interesting. Since the subject of in-
house tech development came up, I wanted to ask about Intellectual
Property agreements for staff, but time ran out before I got a chance
to ask. My assumption is that the employer may have a claim to IP
developed by staff only if it is within the staffer's usual scope of
work. It would be great to have asked about IP agreements for staff,
and if I can corner Laurie Janik, I think I'll ask.
Okay, have to go now. Next up: A Gen Y guy (an agent, a homebuyer,
and a seller!) will share his thoughts with us greybeards.
