Phil Sexton at John Hall and Associates, keeps the company’s agents updated on current real estate tools in this world of rapidly changing technology. Recently, he posted about an alpha product, Qwiki.
Qwiki quickly blends public information (like you would find on wikipedia) with a robotic voice to create an interactive, multimedia presentation of information.
I took a little time to explore the Qwiki web site, and found two presentations that had been created about Scottsdale.
Scottsdale, Arizona
Scottsdale Fashion Square Mall
It’s easy to see that the software is in its formative stages, yet I find the concept very interesting and have lots of ideas for other Qwiki’s that could be created for Scottsdale. That diverse and detailed information about a community can be compiled into narrated presentation without human intervention is really kind of amazing.

Dru, did you get a chance to watch the rollout presentation video on qwiki’s about page? I’m digging the alarm clock that reads you the weather conditions of the city you’re in and your agenda for the day. Pretty cool tool.
Phil, I did watch the roll-out presentation. The alarm clock was cool. I would definitely want a choice of voices!
