Using the example on the page above, you can see the private labeled SearchOnMaps and clicking on any listing will show the co-branded property website.

Thanks for asking :)

Thanks for explanation about sharing listings from RealBird Virtual Tours on blogs like WordPress. I still think your widgets have great potential as far as viral marketing is concerned.

Quick question. When did you guys launched http://www.searchonmaps.com/ ? Somehow I missed it. I would like to ask you few questions about it in private if you don't mind.

Sorry. It is now approved. The ShareThis based posting to wordpress does not result in the same widget as the one you featured before. We use the technology from ShareThis mostly for social bookmarking and sharing and we will have to add the way to grab the corresponding widget just like you suggested, with a copy and paste. Thanks again for the suggestion. Yep, the trackback was there waiting for approval. Sorry. It is now approved.

Speaking of visiting your blog, I am actually subscribed to your blog so even if you don't see my face on on the MyBlobLog widget, I am still watching you lol…..

On a serious note. I have pinged your post, yet I do not see the trackback. It can be that that my trachback was flagged. Can you look in to it? Thanks.

I noticed that you visited our blog and was just about to email you :) Your points are well taken. I look into the image load speed.

(The UI focuses on large photo shows and neighborhood tours through Google StreetView)<br><br>All the features are left intact in the free service so the widget you mentioned with sharing options are available still for free. The ShareThis sharing on the branded virtual tour do allow posting it to your blog, and I agree that it's a turn off when it asks for your username and password, even though we, at RealBird, will never see it. <br><br>How about adding an option so that users can grab the same code from the virtual tour (copy & paste) as the one provided by the listing widget.

I look into the image load speed. The source for those images are the same as the one used for the free service so they should have identical speed on both user interface (good or bad, but equal)

The main value proposition of this add-on is to create a virtual tour view of the listing information entered into RealBird and make it MLS-friendly, that is, unbranded for IDX distribution. (The UI focuses on large photo shows and neighborhood tours through Google StreetView)

All the features are left intact in the free service so the widget you mentioned with sharing options are available still for free. The ShareThis sharing on the branded virtual tour do allow posting it to your blog, and I agree that it's a turn off when it asks for your username and password, even though we, at RealBird, will never see it.

How about adding an option so that users can grab the same code from the virtual tour (copy & paste) as the one provided by the listing widget. Something like, “Grab this listing as a widget” or similar and excluding the “Post to WordPress” feature which might be confusing in terms of privacy implication?

Thanks for the idea Vlad. Very helpful indeed, we'll implement it soon.

– Zoltan
