Everyone here should try out this handy site someone shared with me a while back. http://www.clsearch.org/ (The previous link was updated 12/26/2004) Put a common word or phrase in the box like "work from home" or "telecommuting is OK" (with or without the telecommute box checked) or a specific job title that you are interested in and you'll get results for all Craigslist locations. Everyone can do it!

I passed that on to Nellers a few days ago. It makes it so much easier to search through all of the posts.

It really does save a LOT of time! Glad someone was thinking and created that handy tool.

Practically every job lead is going to have that word. Then just quickly scan the job lead titles. Soooooo much faster!

Thanks! Do you happen to know if it's ok to post the "not ok to repost" job leads from craigslist on the boards and just not on websites (I know I cant post it on my website, but wonder about boards) ... or not to post them at all anywhere? I've seen soooo many wonderful looking job posts but they say not to re-post and I'm just not sure exactly what they mean by that. Anyone know? ------------------ Nell Taliercio Connecting You With Your Successful Virtual Career! www.MommysPlace.NET [This message has been edited by nellers (edited August 30, 2004).] IP: Logged bchaderton WAHM.com regular posted August 30, 2004 09:48 PM          If it says no repost, just post the link.

Has anyone done this yet? Not sure if they are going to sell my addy or something. LOL.

Have a question about starting a VA biz? IP: Logged meg27599 WAHM.com regular posted December 27, 2004 12:15 PM          Okay, What am I doing wrong? I keep getting no results. I Wait patiently for the page to update once I hit search. All it does is bring me right back to the original page. IP: Logged bchaderton WAHM.com regular posted December 27, 2004 12:24 PM          It's hard to see what you're doing. Can you tell me? Or try what I do. Enter this (including the quotes) in the keyword search box and do not check any other boxes. "Telecommuting is OK" It scans all cities, so please be patient and don't do anything with the page loading until it is done. The top of the page will still look the same, but you should then scroll down to view the various listings it has returned.

Reading the directions (for the one millionth time today..lol) it says: "and return a list of links that popup in a window (please enable popup blockers, although FireFox and Google blockers work fine)." So I went to options on google and enabled the pop up blocker (which seems in my limited pc knowledge to be counterproductive since it would seem to BLOCK the new window from opening right?) and tried the same thing again. Still nothing. Is a new window supposed to open?

So pop-up blockers can't be used, although Mozilla does block pop-ups but works! Go figure!

The linsk will appear under the search options, this making the page "longer" per say where I would scroll down that page to see the links.
