I know one young man (mid 20s) who graduated from the Georgia Institute of Technology who is an engineer & a millionaire investor doing exactly what you seek to do. 

The Importance of Technology in the Real Estate Industry

I'm thinking about keeping it simple with rents in the $200 range and then applying some of my technology skills to add value with Internet for the office, free website/email hosting.

At one point a few years ago I was using technology to post to about 40 different social networking sites at once.What I found is the sites start out hoping to get bought out once they have a big enough following or they go under before they make it.

My name is Usman, I currently manage a technology consulting firm in Dubai and Australia.

A little about myself; I am a 22 year old college student at Pennsylvania College of Technology.

I am retired from being an Information Technology Director for a major manufacturer.

We actually just announced today that we're going to start covering technology and how it can benefit you, as a part of the blog's weekly content.

At the moment, I have not considered REI as a complete gateway from my regular occupation, as I am just as fascinated with Oil and Gas Industry, and things that are happening around us with technological advances and new explorations.

By day I'm a technology/management consultant and by night someone who simply loves to learn, currently spending lots of time reading everything I can on the site and listening to all the podcasts!
