Google surrenders on property search...

Last week saw the demise of Googles attempt at dominating the Estate Agent/Real Estate market.

Using data from Google Maps and street view, it seemed a good strategy, but has admitted defeat due to companies that already dominate this space such as rightmove in the UK.

It just shows that Google isn't necessarily a one stop shop for all information!

I think its a good and a relaxing news for Trulia, Zillow, Realtor and their competitors! But I think they should bring it back because the rest are not fast and not as efficient as Google was!
