Trulia has caught flack the last few weeks over it’s practices of instituting ‘no-follow’ tags on its links to its broker partners.

Now individual agents can brand [...]
Realtor.com has an iPhone version of their site (available at iphone.realtor.com) and now Trulia has joined the party and released an iPhone ready version of their search tools; complete with a tongue-in-cheek video to promote it.

Trulia, with their latest offering, which they’ve playfully dubbed “Trulia in a Box” and more formally known as the Trulia Publishing Platform, [...]

Trulia announced today that it has inked a deal with Realogy Corporation (H), parent company of Century 21, Coldwell Banker and ERA, to upload more than 500,000 of its affiliates’ listings to its database. Realogy made this move to Trulia alongside a similar deal with Google Base.
