How to setup and run Synergy - YouTube

How to setup and run Synergy - YouTube One of my favorite teachers runs a YouTube Channel at AllAroundNewsTv run by a young man we know as Ben. Ben sounds like he's 12 years old or younger, and he's one of the most helpful instructors online. From installing RAM to setting up and running Synergy, Ben is my techspert.

Go Ben!

And after a little troubleshooting I was able to get Synergy up and running between the Dell running Windows XP and my HP running Windows 7. After I got the names straight I still had to fix a version incompatibly issue, but by downloading the same version on both machines, it worked, and it works, and it's awesomely handy to have two computers you can control with one keyboard and one mouse.

I got my Synergy Download at cnet http://download.cnet.com/Synergy/3000-2072_4-10714570.html be carefull not to download their toolbar.

I found this Facebook Message I posted on a seller's wall some time ago, and it's still true today except that I've hung my license with United Country and am back in business. Here's what I said: In commercial real estate there's a concept called the rate of absorption/ absorption rate. When you look at it, you say, there are... for instance in Golden Valley's case: In October, there were are 206 properties for sale. In the area, properties sale at a rate of about 10 each year, that means there is more than 20 years of inventory on the market. The more the inventory the lower the prices - supply and demand. We don't use the absorption in residential real estate, but the concept makes clear the idea of supply and demand. My best advice to you is to pull your property off the market until things start moving. Right now you're in competition with foreclosures and sellers/investors who are willing to take a loss. At this time, although I hold a Broker's license I am not representing sellers. I am working full-time marketing, with The Real Estate Book, and know nearly every agent in Rutherford County. I don't know who your agent is, but like as not, it's not lack of effort that's kept your property from selling, it's a tough market. Look at your lot as a long term investment. Will Rogers said: Don't wait to buy land, buy land and wait.Land is a solid investment in the changing fortunes of time. If you simply can't keep it, offer it to your friends and family, surely someone would love to take over your payments.If you want to profit - wait, wait, wait.
