  • There is another website like craigslist and fwix that offers the same classified ads and job listings plus covers local user-contributed news. It's called 4grabs.org.

    Because 4grabs.org doesn't define geographic communities by city name it works everywhere in the world. Posts are geo-tagged with a latitude and longitude.

  • Craigslist is a great place to hook up and meet others in your area.
  • Craigslist is a huge site and always something new happening.
  • Interesting post about Craigslist I find there is always something new.
  • Have to say I do agree. Things like this just are what they are.
  • I think it would be good for craigslist to come with more social media
  • I think craiglist should change their website appearance. It looks like back to 90ish website.
