Viewr.com is a new web-based company that utilizes Web 2.0 and Asynchronous JavaScript and XML (AJAX) technologies to bring together buyers, sellers, agents and visitors on a global scale. The service will launch in August. It intends to help people around the world to search and view real estate for sale via a user-created database and user videos of properties.

It looks Web 2.0, alright.

"The marketing of residential real estate is no longer local or regional, but global through the utilization of the Web as platform. The viewr application and database utilizing Web 2.0 and AJAX 2.0 technologies makes this possible... I call it tele-commuting for Real Estate," said Karl Lingenfelder, CEO of Viewr Corporation.

Viewr will harness the collective net-enabled intelligence of the user/visitor in the creation of its specialized database. "Buyers have always been left out of the equation," said Lingenfelder. "The buyer will be able to create a 'Buyer Listing' at viewr.com stating what the buyer is looking for. Sellers and their agents as well as prospective sellers will be able to search the buyer database for a potential match."

Viewr Corporation, a Web 2.0 Company located in San Diego, is a collaboration between Karl Lingenfelder and Arben Kryeziu of Bump Networks located on Maui in Hawaii. The collaboration utilizes talents and resources from around the world. Viewr is due to launch globally on August 1st.
