For Mac users, IDS is a new tool available to access the MLS on your Mac!
MarketLinx recently launched a new application that allows Mac users to access the MLS directly from their Mac OS system. The traditional alternative is having to install a third party application such as Paralles or VM Fusion software then installing Windows so that you can run Internet Explorer to access the MLS.
The MarketLinx application is called IDS and you can find the download instructions at the following link: IDS Links Mac Installation Guide_SEF
I have been using it for a week or so. It works well and is fairly stable. Unfortunately it is somewhat slow when compared to running the MLS direct from Internet Explorer.
IDS is a temporarely solution for those who prefer not to installed Windows on their Macs.
Hopefully by sometime early in 2011, MarketLinx will release the MLS on all internet browers as I discussed in my earlier blog.
