I don’t know about you, but I’d love 2009 to be the year that a “techmeme for real estate” was unveiled. Do you think my wish will be granted?

There is even less need for this now than there was a year ago.
You can find what I find important in my Scenius scene or you can create one of your own. But real estate weblogs, taken as a whole, are a lot less interesting now that they were this time last year.

I think the problem with a RealEstateMeme is that not enough folks are blogging about consumer real estate news…
