CraigsPal Brings Craigslist To Your Desktop

Posted By: Sarah Perez | Sep 26th, 2008 @ 8:49 AM

Are you a heavy user of the online classified website Craigslist? If so, then you definitely have to look at CraigsPal, a desktop software program designed just for searching Craigslist. The application is available in two different versions, one free and one paid. The free version lets you search across cities, states, and countries, filter content, use negative searches (-keyword), preview listings/photos, sort by price or date, flag spam, and has several keyboard shortcuts.

The paid version, however, is for the true Craigslist fanatic. With CraigsPal Pro ($29.99), you can receive mobile SMS and email alerts, save favorite searches, backup your user data, automate searches, and you have access to free updates for the life of the program.

Of course, if you just want to search all the Craigslist sites, you don’t need an app to do so: Search All Craig's lets you do that from one simple web page. And if you really want to delve into all that is Craigslist, Lifehacker has the definitive Craigslist Power Users Guide.

In this time, where most people are worrying about mass layoffs and unemployment, Craigslist has given opportunity to those who are frantically searching for jobs. There's also Monster, Yahoo Hot Jobs, numerous others. People looking for things such as home furnishings that don't want to have to go to eBay can look into Free Napkin , a website that has online auctions, except that everything is free, which is handy if you don't want to get a payday loan to replace your couch, or the lamp you threw across the room because you couldn't find any good job listings.
