The rest of his presentation focused on the mobile apps you must explore and he recommends as tools for expanding your capabilities, your lead generation and customer service abilities. Here are a few he highlighted which we completely agree are must-haves:

• Localmind - Download this app, open it and ask a real-time question to anyone checked in at a location on the map.
• Qwiki - Chris described this app as Wikipedia and YouTube's love child. Qwiki pulls up visually appealing information, photos and videos for any key word.
• Houzz - We were first introduced to this home design app at Inman Real Estate Connect in San Francisco in July. We are obsessed with this for design and renovation inspiration.
• Prezi - This is a free, presentation building tool that Chris recommended for listing presentations. It has incredible movement capabilities as you transition from slide to slide.
• Realtor.com - The app for Realtor.com allows you to change home search criteria to a specific set of blocks. How cool is that? Perfect for the picky homebuyer.
• Quicklytics - On the train? Wondering how your website traffic is doing? Quicklytics will tell you.
• Evernote - Real estate professionals are always raving about Evernote. It's easy to use and it syncs to all your devices and platforms. Chris informed us that the CEO of Evernote will be speaking at the Inman Real Estate Connect conference in New York City in January. We'll be there, so we'll be sure to cover it for you!
• Magic Plan - This may be the coolest thing I've seen so far today. Point your phone at the corners of a room, tell it where the doors are and it draws up a floor plan for you! That is magic!
• Glympse - Want to give a buyer a glympse of their new neighborhood? Open up this app and let your mobile device give a tour!
