Redbug Technologies announces the launch of Mapwing.com, a Web-based software application for building, sharing, and exploring virtual tours online. Mapwing.com makes it easy for anyone to turn their digital photos into interactive, walkthrough virtual tours.
Unlike other virtual tour programs, Mapwing.com allows users to design maps that connect each photo to a corresponding location. Users can share tours with people from around the world and even integrate them with personal Web sites such as MySpace.com®.
Mapwing.com is especially well suited for tourism and real estate, where users can quickly upload photos, design floor plans, and add comments to create an interactive virtual tour.
Paul Hayes, a real estate agent from Keller Williams Reality, a national chain, said agents using Mapwing.com can post more photos of a property at less cost.
"Mapwing.com is a superior product compared to what is available for Realtors today. It opens up a virtual tour to any property."
Mapwing.com tours can be emailed, downloaded, burned to CD, and linked to from any Web site or real estate Multiple Listing Service. Mapwing has a growing gallery of users sharing tours such as this one: http://www.mapwing.com/explore/view_tour.php?t=llSlbb8SllvA0l
