Zillow Extends Real Estate Map Searches

Looking to take full advantage of the interactive, touch capabilities of a new generation of touch sensitive tablets and smartphones, Zillow said this afternoon that it has added a new feature to its mobile apps, which allows to "draw" their own real estate search parameters. The new feature, which runs on iPhone and iPad devices, takes advantage of those devices' touch sensitive devices to create arbitrary real estate map searches. The new feature is a big departure from the run-of-the-mill city, zip code, or neighborhood searches on most real estate sites. Zillow said the new tool pretty much allows home shoppers to draw boundaries of any shape and size with their finger, and also apply the apps' other filters on top of those geographic search boundaries.
