Danita Jolly started writing on a new blog, Woodinville Living Undressed 5 days ago. She has posted 16 articles. Here is her email to me regarding some research she just did.

CiUn is an acronym for Consumer Information Undressed Network. Our journey began many years ago when I proudly purchased one of the very first Apple Computers at the first computer store in King County, Washington. I was to be a real estate agent in a few years.
That is an interesting sign perhaps. I say that because real estate agents in the most part are not techies. I was not, and as a result could only use my new computer to play a game called break out, or something like that. My store promised me some day programs would be created so I the non programmer could use my new game, uh computer.
The first program was a check book program, oh that was a joy.
Now lets fast forward to now. Technology is incredible. Google, Yahoo, Microsoft and the boys have mastered search. A young stud named Matt has invented WordPress and the Real Estate Industry has guys and gals like you and I. Oh, my children that saw the computer figured out how to program it or marry someone who does.
You and I? Yes, because I am writing this and you are reading it. We are the types that have the vision of what can be done. While some of the younger generation used genius and develop technology, others of all generations (you and I) fell in love with how real estate and technology can be used together.
This network of blogs bring the most effective internet application (local real estate blogs) with a network of agents. This network of agents, this company CiUn combine their resources to be a blog network by agents for agents. This is a network of agents working for agents with technology brains supporting us. It is more than a blog.
Pick a neighborhood and join in. You will be glad you did.

RE: RealEstateUndressed.com
This site is nationally recognized. Blogged.com has ranked it number 12, tied with Zillow in its rankings. This is an important honor. The Gosselin list names it as one of the 10 most influential real estate blogs. MySpace news selected it as one of the dozen it gathers and posts on its real estate news section. It has a page rank 5 Google ranking.
It is now your tool for traffic. It is now easy for me to follow your articles, as they all appear on neighborhoodsUndressed.com. Because of that I am picking several articles per week and posting them on real estate undressed. This helps us and you. It helps me with quick content. Not bad as I write on 4 blogs now. It also helps you by driving traffic and giving you a link from a page rank 5 site. I am looking for more and more ways of expanding the traffic to real estate undressed, and then to you.
The examples of how I have been doing this: 1- An article that I believe is interesting 2- A great photo 3- Weekly I take 4 random undressed articles off of neighborhoodsUndressed and post them on realestateundressed.com 4- Is not yet official: That is if you would like to post an article on real estate undressed, as the author, you may now do that. I experimented with a couple of mortgage articles from Las Vegas and like it.
