Yahoo!, Zillow and Trulia Talk About Merging Ideas to Create a New Data Standards Format.

Hooray! The single largest issue that bogs down better real estate Search is the hieroglyphical nature of the data between repositories (MLS' primarily).

Many times cooperative yields far better results than competitive...but then the id, ego, and/or super-ego goes and gets in the way of things. Galen openly loathes MLS data normalization, so this appears to be a good thing. Looks like these current pillars of real estate Search have put aside their respective psyche's in attempt to make real estate Search better for everyone.

Hey Jeff,

This is good news, that is as long as I can get to the data and use it on my websites for FREEEEEEEE.  OK, maybe not.

Take care!

Jeff, Sara from Zillow.  Yes, this is going to be a very good thing for Brokers!  Yahoo did a video post on the progress of the standard feed the other day, if you are interested in seeing some of the faces behind the project- http://developer.yahoo.net/blog/archives/2008/02/real_estate_standard.html .
