Take a Spin with Frank and Take the Poll

Have you seen the "WheelEstateCam" that Arlington real estate broker Frank Borges LLosa posts on his blog and YouTube? LLosa is first-rate at this Web marketing thing, having named his brokerage FranklyRealty.com and all. A while back he fastened a Web camera directly to his steering wheel, and regularly talks real estate as he tools around town in his black convertible. He didn't want to say the make but it rhymes with nexus.

He usually makes a lot of sense, but honestly, I can barely pay attention to the content. I'm watching traffic over his shoulder (it's a habit, ask my husband) and listening for the rumble strips as he veers onto the side of the road, gesturing with his hands. Then there's the jackpot -- Frank rotates upside down, still talking, as he spins the steering wheel. Priceless.

I spoke with Frank over the phone, and he assured me that he really does watch the traffic. He volunteered that when he -- someday, he stressed -- is transporting babies in the back seat, he'll turn the camera off. All I can say is drive safely, Frank. And we should all keep an eye out for that black car.
