Gossip bloggers and jealous startup founders rejoice: Zillow.com estimates house prices of homes nation-wide. Or at least it will. The site went live at midnight, but the site's down right now — must be getting hit hard by Larry Ellison's accountant keeping tabs on his client. I'll keep a finger on F5 and have real estate info for you as soon as Zillow's up. In the meantime, enjoy a snipe from Property Shark CEO Ryan Slack:

My understanding is that Zillow is out to disintermediate the broker and real estate salesperson, attempting to devalue the broker's Comparable Market Analysis by providing an instant valuation of sorts.

Oh, he's just pissed that Zillow includes all the uncool cities.

Update: Zillow is live. We'll have a treat for you soon.
