Interview with Michael Russer (a.k.a. Mr. Internet)
By Reggie · September 7, 2008
It’s always great when you can meet up with someone that has influenced your development either directly or indirectly. This recently happened to me when I tracked down Michael Russer (a.k.a. Mr. Internet) for an Interview. I first started reading Michael’s work nearly 10 years ago. I’ve always admired his ability to look-forward and share his opinions. If you are like me and enjoy Michael, or just want some opinions about consumers, real estate technology and a few other gems…then you should definitely listen to this podcast interview:

Hi Reggie,
Great interview with Michael! His recommendation of virtual outsourcing technology that takes away time from clients and selling is spot on!
Good to see you on here Craig, I’m a little late to this show.
