 The
use of Internet-based and mobile communications to obtain
information and to interact socially is one of the revolutions
of our time. It is staggering to realize that 350 million
Facebook members (out of 500 million total members) send
over 4 billion messages each day! Twitter adds 300,000 new
users and gets 600 million searches daily. In addition,
there are about 300 million cell phones in use in the United
States. Nearly half of these are estimated to be "smart
phones", i.e. they have some enhanced capability to
run programs or to function like computers.
For many, text messaging
has replaced telephone calls and e-mail as the preferred
method of communication.
One of the interesting aspects
of these new ways of communicating is that people can tailor
the content of the information that they receive and decide
with whom they want to interact. Recognizing that you have
a special interest in Hatteras Island and its real estate
market, we would like to be one of your primary resources
for the most current information available in ways that
are custom-made for your personal preferences. Toward that
