Trulia, real estate listing winning raves in Silicon Valley

by on October 25, 2005

The ScanR folks are raving about Trulia, which is a new Real Estate Search page. Very interesting. A couple of Stanford kids started it.

Speaking of which, in 10 minutes I’ll be in the office where Google, Logitech, and Paypal started their business lives. I’m meeting the current company: Picaboo (they do a peer-to-peer photo sharing application). Are they the next Google, or even Flickr? Well, we’re heading across University Ave. to get a look.

  • Well, that looks awfully familiar. Check out this:

    Is this based on housingmaps.com, or just "inspired" by it? Housingmaps has been around for a while.

    Picaboo won't replace Flickr for me because it does not run on my system.

    This is awesome. I really could care less what came first because this site is fast, incredibly easy to use and Mac friendly.

    Scoble, Picaboo is a rehash of old ideas. Here is Keeboo, http://www.keeboo.com/fra/, developed in...1997. Hmmm.

    What I don't get is that we are in 2005 and those guys still force users into downloading the software before using it.

    really cool article...hey Scoble...I hope MS is working out to bring something to the table real soon...
  • Seems like a great concept but why no New York real estate? Check out another great real estate site i found: http://www.citycrybs.com

    There's another site that does this type of thing:
