Brad Inman invited Jamie Glenn of Trulia.com to present the top 50 online ways to market real estate. We shot some video of the presentation and have it posted here along with a list of the web services mentioned in the video. We’ll critique our section (Multimedia) later. Not surprisingly, we have a lot to say about the subject.
