In a clever story about different real estate markets, Sellsius Blog's  Real Estate Markets: Is Yours Dead Or Alive? says:  

"Alive & Well: Cleveland, Columbus, Dallas-Ft. Worth, Houston, Kansas City (MO) Omaha & Pittsburgh."

Sellsius interprets the facts from Money.CNN.com article about various US markets. Writer Ellen Florian Kratz, of FORTUNE magazine wrote an article about the relative 'health" of number of  real estate markets.  Columbus Ohio  is a "SafeHaven" according to Kratz article.  

In Real Estate Markets: Is Yours Dead Or Alive? 

Sellsius blog donned the scrubs, grabbed the paddles and yelled:

"CLEAR...."

"His heart rate's still low. Give him another milligram of atropine."

I covet the photograph Sellsius illustrate the entry with.. It is soooooo ER,  so Grey's Anatomy....  and all I have is a dorky cartoon doctor... but he is MY dorky cartoon doctor. 

There's an online discussion re: images now about using images in blog entries on BlogTalk (a forum for RealTown Blog's Bloggers.) This blog, Columbus Best Blog is a RealTown blog.  A 'blogging expert'  on BlogTalk and one of the most prolific bloggers on RealTown Blogs gave a lesson in how to swipe photos on the internet.  Strangely some of the photos on her blog are  linked to the Google Images page ....duh....
