How do you search Craigslist?

[Lyndy]

I agree holeinone. Whenever I've looked it's been tons of spam. It's quite annoying, but thanks for the tips on other keywords.

That's true about the spam, but I think you're going to find that in any search. I found my current job through craigslist and it's a really good one.

Try SearchCraigs.com

You can just go to the site and type in "telecommuting is ok" and it will pull up all work at home jobs in all cities and categories. Or you can specify a city or category.


F.Y.I...

It's my site I just built. But it is working great. And there are no ads on it or mess. Just a plain search page, like google. I'm still adding cities for individual searches. But the search all is already finished.

I know I posted this somewhere else, but I have a blog post I wrote that is all about searching Craigslist nationally using Google. If anyone is interested: http://www.remotelymommy.com/2009/01...raigslist.html

Hi All!

I use http://www.whydowork.com/jobs.php

They have pretty much every craigslist site in the world on there plus all the freelance ones i use.

You can also do a Google search which will probably find you each and every result on the internet related to the keywords you punched in. Or you can be smart and get a hold of an app which will let you search smartly.

i have been actively reading posts for the past few weeks and notice that most of the time, the links and smileys are being written out in html instead of appearing as clickable links and graphics. i was so revved up reading that i ignored this til recently. but now i really want those links!

a few minutes ago i clicked on Barbs link to search craigslist google and it came up just fine with a special shaded window to search Craigslist only. i also noticed the the smileys were graphical icons for a few minutes. then as i was clicking around everything went back! i cant get Barbs link to work, it just comes up with the Google search window (its Sesame street today)

and the links that will get you to various craigslist cities are now back to being like this:

<<a href="http://albany.craigslist.org/cgi-bin/search?areaID=59&amp;subAreaID=0&amp;query=&amp;ca tAbbreviation=jjj&amp;addOne=telecommuting" target="_blank">Albany,
NY</a

all of this happen in the space of about 30 minutes.

all the smileys in your posts look like this to me most of the time:

ok3:36 i went to another window and the smileys came back? ????? what is going on I use both Mozilla firefox and IE. sometimes i use IE's new in private browser. but this happens in all of them?i dont so much care about the smileys. but the one time i used Barbs link i really liked it? :-)

This is an ancient thread

When it was started the board had a different format

When the board changed to this format links, smilies, and some other features were effected

i still wish i knew why earlier today i could get the whole list of cities, now only Maine and Delaware work.
