What is up the sleeve of Google?
Inman News posted some BIG NEWS this morning, that Google will no longer support real estate listings on their classifieds listing site. On February 10th, the Google feature for real estate won't work for you! Dashed are dreams of a globetrotting strategy for advertising your home for sale, but if you find an address,
then snap! the maps will still give you directions to my house.
"Consumers will no longer be able to find for-sale, foreclosure, or rental properties through the search function on Google Maps, and real estate professionals will no longer be able to upload their listings to Google Base, the company's classifieds site, which is being replaced by Google Shopping APIs and will not support real estate listings." full story here
So what is up their sleeve? Certainly, there's no lack of imagination--- or is there? Is this a hat trick? You have my full attention, Google. I'm not even going to blink or sneeze. I'll be waiting, vigilantly, for whatever it is you plan to pull out of your sleeve. A big reveal for real estate? It's just too much information NOT to play with!
