BrokerIPTV: Welcome to BloodHoundBlogs Unchained event sponsored by zillow.com. We are here in Phoenix, Arizona at the Heard Museum and I am honored to have our primary sponsor representative here, David Gibbons from zillow.com. David, can you just tell us why Zillow was involved with events like this Web 2.0 and social media?

David Gibbons: Thanks Mark. This is really good food for us obviously way beyond real estate. The Zillow's mission is to empower consumers through information. Something we realized is that information is not going to all come from our databases. A lot of that information is going to come from local experts. You have heard real estate is local; well, it is very, very true. So where are you going to find the local expertise. The local expertise lies within the experience of the local real estate professional and we realized that to empower our consumers with information from the local real estate professional, we should build a platform whereby local real estate pros and consumers get together and under the same roof and talk about real estate and that is what zillow.com is. So, as you think about from that perspective zillow.com is one big social media marketing opportunity for real estate professionals to show what they are best at. So, this is a perfect fit for us here. Social media is revolutionizing the real estate industry. Zillow wants to be a part of that, equipping realtors to use social media obviously plays into a mission of empowering consumers with information.

BrokerIPTV: Great answer David and we really appreciate your sponsorship here for events like Unchained. Thank you.

David Gibbons: You are welcome. Glad be a part of it.

BrokerIPTV: Wonderful. Thank you very much.
