I did use the Point 2 free version on occassion, but apparently you can only use IE to access the site. With my new MAC I only use Safari and Firefox, in fact there isn’t even a recent version of IE for MAC available. So I won’t be using this site anymore.

I don’t have the point 2 professional version. I have been using the free edition for about nine months now. I was considering upgrading to the professional version. Given this information about the blogging platform you may have swayed my decision.

If its a blog I always use wordpress. You just can get that type of community and community support elsewhere especially with a paid application that closes all its source.
As for me I do more than blog on my San Luis Obispo Blog. So I use drupal, its got a great community following just like wordpress it makes add-ons very easy. There are also a few real estate plug-ins that I haven’t yet taken advantage. Some that manage properties etc..

Jay,

I’ve read this article a couple of times now, and am really glad that I decided to go with the P2 blog. I like how it is integrated with my site and automatically set up a page in my website with my most recent posts.

Question for you…as I keep reading about blogs, I’m finding all these great suggestions about adding blogrolls, buttons, etc to the side columns, and I can’t figure out how to do any editing other than changing the template theme. Is it possible to customize the P2 blog beyond just colors? If so, is it simple enough for non-technical people to do?

Bob – I really have no idea how many Professional and Premium level Point2 Agent members are utilizing the Point2 blogging platform.

About all I can say is, a lot. As with any platform, some are brilliant, some not-so-swift.

I’ll see if I can get some numbers from Point2…

A year later and I’m curious to the numbers of agents you saw convert to this.

I think wordpress is very good, I have no problems with it. I also use text-pattern which can be fully customized and you can check it our here: http://www.mostlyforeclosures.com/
