Landlord cleaning goes high tech

My latest encounters with a house clean have been a million miles away from Mrs Mop.

Louise has just gone in and done a thorough house clean.  Her first question was do you use whatsapp.  Well I know that I downloaded the app onto my iphone some months ago and that's about as far as I got.  

"I'll do the clean and then send you the images across to you with Whatsapp.  You can then use them to either advertise the property or in your inventory". She profferred.

So the clean was completed yesterday and true to her word I received a text from her to say that the pictures showing my freshly cleaned property are on their way.  I then spend 5 minutes twiddling about with my bloomin app & iphone.  Sure enough some how the images appear in glorious technicolour showing my now gleaming buy to let.

The wonders of technology and landlording come together in perfect harmony.  Just witness the results.  Sweet!

I don't undertand Whatsapp.

Why do you need it? Isn't it just as easy to send the images via MMS? What value does Whatsapp add?

Anybody?

MMS costs money to send, but with Whatsapp it's free. However it's also free to send the pics as an email attachment and I can then get them easily on any of my devices so I'll stick to email.

Whatsapp is basically another useful app that is increasingly making a phone contract more and more redundant. It's an instant messenger, which is quicker than standard SMS and completely free. Similarly you can send photos and videos completely free too, and organise group message forums. I'd give mobile phone contracts about another 4 years, then they're history.
