Add a Video Comment On the Trulia Blog

Today we added video commenting functionality to the Trulia blog. If you have a webcam, it’s a fun way to make your comment come to life. Text comments can be interpreted in many different ways. Often times, a reader may misinterpret the authors tone or message. In turn, they may leave a not so pleasant comment which can lead to a huge misunderstanding. We all know what can happen in this situation - real estate blog wars. So, can a video comment help make the dialogue more efficient and fun? I’m not sure but we’ll give it a try. Will you?

The wordpress video comment plugin was created by Seesmic, a Twitter-like video service aimed at connecting people and communities through video.

Additionally, you can add a video directly to your blog post with the Seesmic plugin. Sweet!

Thanks to Loren from the Future of Real Estate Technology blog for the inspiration.

    Hey Rudy!

    I love this idea. You may not think so by my “text” comment, but this computer does not have a webcam. I’m off to install the plug-in on my blog now.

    Thanks again.

    Ciao!
