Crgslst: It’s Craigslist multi-city search + AJAX
There’s a newly launched website called Crgslst (mind you, without the vowels).
What is it? It’s an ajax-powered search tool to search items in craigslist. They also claim to scour multiple cities quickly – a feature craigslist doesn’t yet have.
Well, how do they do it? They dynamically fetch RSS feeds at Craigslist when you search.
There is something I don’t like with the service (for now, hope they improve it). They don’t have other locations aside from some popular US areas. The site can only be viewed optimally using a wide monitor. If you have a small monitor, you will see horizontal scrollbars as you search. It works on small monitors though if you don’t mind the scrollbars.
Overall, the site is very simple, easy-to-use and pretty cool. Notably because of it’s no-browser-reload (ajax) functionality.
The site’s developers (superhero.es) did a good job keeping the user interface as simple as possible.
Kudos to you guys! Hope to see other locations soon.
Cheers!
