@madler11 I'm told it's only in the exhibit area and at the cyber cafe in the hall. #NMHCTech
@theaptnerd The question got asked ... in their view, social doesn't translate to direct leads. Answer came from John Helm. #NMHCTech
Steve Small: "We avg. 30 spam emails per legit lead & .5 leads per post from our Craigslist efforts." #NMHCTech
RT @LisaTrosien: Wireless internet in a hotel is a utility, not an amenity. It's expected. If you don't have it, you're behind, hotels.
"If you're having issues, don't be afraid to reach out directly to Craigslist." -Steve Small #NMHCTech
Any questions for the ILSs? They're all on stage right now ... fire away! #NMHCTech
Debate in the audience whether tracking pageviews on Craigslist is against their TOS. Any insights? #NMHCTech

@kdutyNMHC Is there any Wi-Fi at #NMHCTech?
Todd Katler - "It's a problem that prospects go from the ILS to the property website. ILS doesn't get credit." (Bad philosophy!) #NMHCTech
"Renters don't care how they find you." - Todd Katler #NMHCTech

@chuckhemann You feeling OK? Is this what happens when there's no Browns game?
