Properazzi is now Enormo

1) It must have been a very difficult decision that of changing the name of a web project after more than a year of launching and when it’s already relatively well known.

2) I liked Properazzi, but it’s true that it’s a complicated name. I like Enormo even more though. Without doubt, Yannick Laclau knows how to choose a good name for his projects.

3) Enormo is already available in 30 countries. When a model is tried and tested and the growth is based mainly on traffic coming from Google, launching the project in other countries is a natural way to expansion.

4) I love the lack of design. It’s as if they had done the design thinking according to my taste. And take a look at the advertising, where is it? A fantastic integration of Adsense Premium, that other vertical search engine companies focused on real estate classified ads, also appear to be achieving.

5) Seasonal advertisements is an option which has been added recently I think and that competitors Trovit and Nuroa don’t have as yet. Since Idealista acquired a stake in Rentalia and included it in its content, this option will end up being offered by all the vertical search engines.

6) Now that they have changed their name, wouldn’t they also have considered diversifying in other subjects? Especially, the theme of classified adverts for jobs seems to be working well for other search engines of this type.

Nav2us multimedia content for GPS

Nav2us

The GPS devices shop ActivaGPS has just started a service called Nav2us that allows users to share geolocalized places and multimedia content through their GPS device.

Nav2us utilizes the API’s of various map services and of some mashups to offer the user a series of options that improve the experience of using a GPS navigator.

The principal functionality of Nav2us is to offer the members of the community a place to share the location of their places, something that sites like Tagzania or Wikiloc already do. And the main utility that I see is that one can download content directly from the website to a GPS connected to the computer.

Nav2us has versions in Spanish, English and French. It’s a good strategy to come out in various languages and promote the use of the site on an international level.
