It’s been about a month now since we released the very first real estate widget for the iPhone (see HouseFront and Apple sitting in a tree…) and we’ve had a great response. The widget thus far has made its way around the web getting posted on all the major iPhone widget pages, but the big news for us today is Apple.com’s “official” iPhone web widget directory finally picked us up.

To see the widget in action navigate your iPhones Safari browser to http://iphone.housefront.com (you can also do it on your computer but……it wont look nearly as cool)

Check out the HouseFront iPhone widget on Apple’s iPhone widget directory.

As a side note, we are currently working on a redesign of our widget and plan to have it out in the next few weeks, so keep an eye on the widget and we’ll let you know when we’ve got some updates.

If you’ve got any comments or ideas for our iPhone widget give us a shout and let us know.
