Strange musings from our analytics team

Rightmove is available almost everywhere; on desktop, Android, iPhone, iPad, Windows Phone… the list goes on. But did you also know that we’re pretty popular on games consoles too?


Take the Playstation 3 for example… During the past 30 days almost 4,000 people have logged in to find their happy whilst – presumably – taking a break from their daily Call of Duty fix.


There were even a few people who viewed Rightmove on a Nintendo 3DS, although we should point out that the Rightmove website is not (yet) 3D enabled.


This got us thinking… where are the quirkiest places people have viewed Rightmove from? Imagine our surprise when this popped up in our analytics:



Indeed, it seems that on the 9th April 2008, one solitary individual (or technologically advanced Penguin, we’ll leave you to decide!) decided to browse Rightmove for what we can only imagine was to help with their relocation back to civilisation.


Were you this person (or penguin)? If so, we’d love to hear from you; please drop us a note on Twitter @rightmove and let us know if you ‘found your happy’ once you returned to good ol’ Blighty!
