HELP KW HAVE A PRESENCE AT SXSW INTERACTIVE 2017
One of the things that Austin, TX is best known for is its annual SXSW Conference that celebrates the convergence of the interactive, film, and music industries. SXSW features a variety of tracks that allow attendees to explore what’s next in the worlds of entertainment, culture, and technology The Intelligent Future track embodies the realm of future possibilities where intelligence is embedded in every aspect of life with the goal for technology to empower and enable new possibilities like smart transportation and cites, augmented reality and intelligent devices.

 The SXSW PanelPicker is an innovative online tool that allows the SXSW community to have a voice in the programming that occurs during the conference While the input of SXSW staff and the SXSW advisory board helps ensure everyone has a chance of being selected, the public vote counts for 30 percent of the process.

 With more than 5,000 proposals, the selection process is extremely competitive, and we want to help KW's very own CIO, Josh Team, be selected for this proposed panel called, "Future Proof Your Organization Though Innovation." Cast your vote now!

You're Helping Keep Our Agents' Accounts Secure!

Happy Friday, KW Technology Community members! Here's a look at just a few items that will be discussed on today's KW Technology Community webinar.

 YOU'RE HELPING KEEP OUR AGENTS' ACCOUNTS SECURE!
Imagine losing access to your Google account and everything in it. If someone steals your password, they could lock you out of your account, and then do some of the following:
  • Go through – or even delete – all of your emails, contacts, photos, etc.
  • Pretend to be you and send unwanted or harmful emails to your contacts
  • Use your account to reset the passwords for your other accounts (banking, shopping, etc.
That’s why it’s so important to enable 2-Step Verification on your Google Apps for Work account. 2-Step Verification can help keep bad guys out, even if they have your password. 
Agents enabling 2-Step Verification on @kw.com Accounts
Join the thousands of other KW agents who’ve turned on 2-Step Verification to protect their account by following these quick and easy steps. Since Family Reunion 2016, we’ve seen a 10,000% increase in the number of agents who have enabled this service! We thank all of you who serve as your Market Center’s Technology Ambassador or Tech Coordinator for leading your agents to make this important investment in the security of their business information.

 NEW IN eEDGE THIS WEEK
  • Reduce Spam: When consumers fill out the CMA request form on the Sell page, they will be asked to enter the CAPTCHA code. This will prevent some of the spam issues we've seen on this page.
  • Dive Deep Into Website Analytics: Connect your Google Analytics Tracking ID to your eEdge account to give you more insight into how visitors find and use your site. You can do this on the Website Admin > Website Analytics page in your eEdge account.
  • Simplify Marketing Tasks: You'll notice a streamlined Create Marketing menu and Market Center landing page. Non-Marketing Center links have been removed, all agent related links appear at the top and all Design Library templates in the middle. Additionally, personalizing a media template will auto-save with the step after saving in the Editor.

UPCOMING TECHNOLOGY WEBINARS IN AUGUST
Here's a list of KW Technology webinars scheduled for this month. All webinars run from 2-2:30 PM (Central Time), unless otherwise noted.
