mobile: Zillow Mobile App Now On BlackBerry! - 03/31/11 06:25 AM
When I talk to agents about Zillow's mobile apps- it is inevitable that the question comes up... "What about an app for the Blackberry?".  I know a lot of agents use a Blackbery, I myself only recently switchedover to Droid. 
Now with the launch of the Zillow Blackberry App, we have 90% smartphone user coverage to assist people with home shopping anytime, and anywhere when utilizing the GPS capablities on the app.
Zillow Mobile apps are used 6.5 million times each month, with more than 23 million visits to home detail pages. That's nearly 9 home views every single second!  Want to know … (2 comments)

mobile: Dear BlackBerry Users - I Get It, But It's Time To Switch - 12/14/10 02:12 AM
I get it, you love your Blackberry.  So did I.  I had the first one ever made and upgraded models almost every year.  I looked so cool boarding planes with that thing strapped to my belt loop.  I was a whiz at typing on it and could dominate BrickBreaker.
So what happened?  I got app envy.  I finally went for it and switched to a Droid.  Here is my story.
Day 1 - How fun is downloading apps!  I actually don't know how to use any of them, but saving that for another day.  Right now, all I care about is … (20 comments)

mobile: This Is REALLY Cool, Check Out Zillow's New Android App - 03/18/10 03:58 AM
Once we saw how popular the Zillow iPhone app was (about a million downloads since its launch), we knew a Zillow Android app was in the near future, and today it is here! 
Watch the video for a quick demonstration, it is REALLY cool.  On this app, you can even do voice searches.  And like the Zillow iPhone app, the platform is built with GPS technology, allowing the information to display with you as you walk or drive around neighborhoods.  Finally, because it is a Google based system, the Android platform really allowed for some great use of Google's Street View mapping system. 
I'll … (36 comments)

mobile: Free Zillow iPhone App - Version 2 Release - 06/18/09 04:41 AM
About 2 months ago, Zillow rolled out our first iPhone app with tremendous success.  In 2 months we have had over 400,000 downloads, immediately giving our listing partners a mobile component, on the most popular smart phone real estate application, to their marketing plan.

If your listings still aren't on Zillow, there is now another reason they should be: mobile. 
Two weeks ago Zillow release an iPhone application, and boy was it popular. 
#1 Real Estate app #1 free app in the Lifestyle category #12 Top Free App Over 300,000 downloads!

mobile: Imagine Writing Your Next Blog Post While Driving.... Soon You Can! - 06/26/08 07:17 AM
Today Chrysler announced that next year their vehicles will come with the option of becoming a mini wireless Internet hotspot. 
So now you can get Internet in your car, Virgin has Ethernet ports on their planes, and I still can't pick up a cell signal in my basement.....but I digress. 
The Internet will be a dealer installed option that will work over cellular telephone links. Chrylser's uconnect system can link telephones and personal music players to the car's onboard electronics, so imagine controlling your Apple iPod with radio and steering wheel controls.  It will also includes the company's in-car 30-gigabyte hard … (28 comments)
