		<description><![CDATA[Since Google announced the ability to see lots of real estate listings directly on Google Maps back in July of this year, they've been working hard to make it even easier to use.  They've added things like brand new high-resolution Street View imagery and detailed map data.  Now they're making Google Maps an even more useful tool for online real estate searching.<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=tomblefko.com&blog=5527531&post=1993&subd=tomblefko&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

Gone are the dense, pea-soup like conditions from a couple of months ago that caused buyers and sellers to try and drive through it at 5 mph.  It appears that they've put their collective feet on the accelerator and are now driving more confidently, albeit still with the headlights on.<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=tomblefko.com&blog=5527531&post=1775&subd=tomblefko&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>
