Aaron Sperling with Vflyer on segmenting your listings with widget 2.0

BrokerIPTV: We are on the vendor floor here at Inman Connect in San Francisco 2008 and I am with Aaron Sperling. Aaron, could you tell me your position with vFlyer.

Aaron Sperling: I am the CEO President of vFlyer.

BrokerIPTV: Wow. So, you are the guy that started vFlyer all those years ago then.

Aaron Sperling: We started more than 2-1/2 years ago with my partner, Oliver Muoto.

BrokerIPTV: Oh, excellent. Well, as I said earlier when I stopped by, between you and Craig and craigslist, my life has just been made a whole lot easier with vFlyer and using craigslist.

Aaron Sperling: Oh, that's fantastic. We work very hard to have attractive content there.

BrokerIPTV: So, tell me now, I have heard the rumors, we have actually read it, we know they are going to happen with craigslist as far as some restrictions on HTML. How is vFlyer going to react to that?

Aaron Sperling: Yeah, we work very hard to review the policies that craigslist has put out, what they think they are going to do in terms of the changes to the HTML and what we have done is we have created a version that is compatible with those new guidelines.

BrokerIPTV: So, anything else we need to know? What changes with vFlyer? Any improvements you guys have in the future?

Aaron Sperling: Absolutely. We just did our widget 2.0 release, which we are really excited about. So, what we've done is, we've now made it easier to create widgets to segment your listings. So, now you can have widgets for your rentals, for your for sales, for your vacation rentals. If you have cars, you can have a car widget. We've just made it easier to create and manage your listings in relationship to your widgets.

BrokerIPTV: But we can separate them by categories instead of having rentals and for sales, and resort properties all on one page, we can... depending on the blog or the website, we have the ability to post those properties.

Aaron Sperling: Absolutely and the other exciting thing is we've made it easier to post the widgets to places like Facebook and other social networks. So, it is typically a couple of clicks and it posts to those places.

BrokerIPTV: Well, excellent. Well, Aaron, once again I appreciate your time here at Inman and I think you have a lot of supporters out there with vFlyer.

Aaron Sperling: Thank you very much.

BrokerIPTV: You bet.
