MRU Managing Editor in Reading materials

If your stack of things to read looks anything like mine, its difficult to see over it. When you add the electronic stack to the physical world stack and you start to wonder if you need another lifetime or two just to get through your reading. And in today’s fast paced world you can’t just turn your back and say, I don’t need to read, or keep up on new ideas, or learn about the new environment in which I do business. You HAVE to read just to stay in place and to get ahead you have to jump in with all you have to give.

So, how does one start to LIMIT the stack? Well, first you can begin to limit things by selecting one or two or three RSS feeds or blogs on MRU to read. You can also follow the posts on The Clozing, an aggregator site for real estate articles.

But what makes The Clozing so interesting and new is they take things a step further: they marry the major news stories with the perspective and point of view writings of Bloggers. Here’s how they describe it:

We gather real estate and business news feeds from the top newspapers and magazines in the country and combine them with feeds from the major real estate blogs. All links are to the original news sources and blogs. The blend of newspapers and blogs will change, depending on the results. We expect we’ll have to do some filtering and tweaking along the way (heck, you can’t trust computers to be perfect), so bear with us.

Check out www.TheClozing.com. It’s definately worth the read.
