Twittering Estate Agents
Everyone’s aflutter over Twitter. Its trajectory over the last few months has been as steep as North Korea’s recent ’satellite’ (cough) launch; but unlike the Korean rocket, Twitter continues to rise and rise (insert Vaughan Williams ‘Lark Ascending’ allusion here).
I’d like to brag that FindaProperty.com was one of the pioneers of the medium, but we were somewhat sluggish to jump aboard the bandwagon - November 2008 to be precise.
And like most of the Twitterati, I remain unsure as what exactly Twitter is good for. Real-time search engine? Global noticeboard? Or just a few million people letting another million people know what they’re eating for lunch. Or tea. Or that they are now awake. In case you were interested. Which you weren’t.
Anyway, some of the more web 2.0 savvy, switched-on estate agents have also decided to catch onto the tailfeathers of the little blue bird and are now tweeting with the best of them.
Some use Twitter to announce they’ve got new properties, some tweet about property-related news, whilst others gaze silently around in wide-eyed wonder, as bemused as our very own Sales Director, but gamely determined not be left behind:

Meh, I don’t get Twitter. It all seems rather pointless.
Like your Sales Director, I’ve embraced the technology, but only to keep with the trends.
