The Real Estate Technology Cycle provide by http://myhome-ca.com
This cycle of blogs represents the observations of the real estate industry for the past three years, The statements I make are an over view and not meant to insult but to provoke a response for or against my views.
To understand the terms used in this blog
web 1.0 refers to websites where you the owner of the site provide the information.
web 2.0 refers to websites where you and others as a community provide the information.
As an industry real estate is struggling with technology. Those of us in the forefront are using web 2.0 ideas to increase our business. Those of us who are following are being left behind everyday. Too many of us however do not see the big picture.
