We agree on all points, biased as we are. Just a couple clarifications we would like to make:<BR/><BR/>I see Zoomf and Globrix as having the same model. End of the day, search engines generate leads. Those leads come in the format of traffic from a targeted property audience. And those leads click-thru to agent websites. A walled garden is not the search engine approach. The differences between Globrix and Zoomf are only interface based, the underlying model, the same. No more subscriptions, rather pay for more leads/clicks/etc. However you want to skin it. <BR/><BR/>Second point, we should all be looking at Zoopla as well. They are innovators. Zoomf, Nestoria, Globrix, DotHomes ... all innovators. This space is ripe for innovation and we all know how frequently the 'new breed' change their UIs (user interfaces) which is almost weekly. So expect an acceleration of the same over the course of 2008. <BR/><BR/>Its nothing if not interesting right now in property 2.0 in the UK<BR/><BR/>:-)<BR/>mike AT zoomf<BR/><BR/>By the way, Globrix hasn't 'won' anything yet. The 800 pound gorilla is still Rightmove and last I heard they made £37 mill in profit last year. They also have an audience bigger than all the new players combined. For now of course.....Mike Carterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12721312956718198007noreply@blogger.com
