The plan for hte next couple of months is to create a social networking side to Properties.co.uk. We naturally could not compte with FaceBook or Twitter, however, We feel we could offer an alternative that is more geared towards Property Related Businesses or Services. Initially here are some of the building blocks to allow communication facilities within the portal users:

• Shout Box – appears immediately on the site and is visible to anyone looking at the shout page.
• Members Messages – allows communication with any member to their e-mail address.
• Feedback Centre – enables you to send messages to the Properties.co.uk administration.
