About
Greetings, cabal.
Welcome to my personal blog, Vendor Alley. My name is Greg Robertson, I’m co-founder of W&R Studios, a software company dedicated to bringing next generation Web 2.0 applications to real estate. Our first web app is a social bookmarking site for real estate called Dwellicious. We are also launching Cloud CMA in January of 2010.
Dwellicious was recently named as a finalist for the 2009 Inman Innovator Award, under the “Most Innovative Technology” category.
This blog is dedicated to the real estate technology industry, from the Vendor’s POV. Lately I’ve been writing reviews on new products and websites. I also love to cover trade shows and conferences and keep up with all the major industry players. It’s an exciting business will a lot of colorful, smart and talented people.
So set your reading glasses to ’satire’, and join me as we try to make sense of the crazy business known as real estate. If you really want to get the full experience, you can follow me on Twitter.
Happy Landings,
Greg
