We did an evaluation and figured out a way to draw a large number of pushpins on GMaps very quickly. When\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/redfin.com\/blog\/2007\/01\/redfin_moves_the_earth.html\" title=\"we went with VE in 2006\">we went with VE in 2006<\/a>, GMaps was faster out of the box but slower once we started drawing on it, especially on IE6.<\/p>\n<p>We like a lot of things about going with Google Maps:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Fast downloads<\/li>\n<li>Fast drawing speeds<\/li>\n<li>Broad browser support<\/li>\n<li>High-resolution\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/blog.wired.com\/wiredscience\/2008\/10\/geoeye-1-super.html\" title=\"GeoEye-1 satellite images\">Geoeye-1 satellite images<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>We don&#8217;t like that we can no longer embed Bird&#8217;s Eye views on our site and that 3 developers spent four weeks to do the switch instead of adding more features. Plus, Redfin has had a very good relationship with the Microsoft Virtual Earth team, which we\u2019ll miss. We&#8217;d like to give special thanks to Sujatha, the Microsoft PM who answered our e-mails, calls, and random entreaties with the utmost of professionalism and speed. We really only have good things to say about VE. Anyone looking to build a map-based Web 2.0 site has two solid choices.<\/p>\n<p>In the end, it was speed, speed, speed that convinced us to switch. In our worst case scenario of 500 pushpins on the map in IE6, GMaps is 385% faster.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/12\/ve-vs-gmaps.png\" alt=\"Real Estate Map\" align=\"center\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Every millisecond counts&#8221; is a <a href=\"http:\/\/googleblog.blogspot.com\/2008\/04\/what-makes-design-googley.html\">&#8220;Googley&#8221; UX design principle<\/a> that we remember from <a href=\"http:\/\/www.zdnet.com\/blog\/btl\/googles-marissa-mayer-speed-wins\/3925\">Marissa Mayer&#8217;s evangelism of speed<\/a> and that we strongly believe in (see <a href=\"https:\/\/redfin.com\/blog\/2007\/10\/making_real_estate_search_faster_and_more_local.html\">here<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/redfin.com\/blog\/2007\/04\/bust_out_the_chowda_redfin_stops_the_the_wheel_of_death.html\">here<\/a>, and <a href=\"http:\/\/devredfin-deploy.coolblueweb.net\/2007\/11\/elephant_versus_dolphin_which_is_faster_which_is_smarter.html\">here<\/a>). Users who come to Redfin now should see maps load and render just a little bit quicker, which makes us feel a little Googley inside.<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s it! Happy holidays from Redfin Engineering.
