I’m the first to admit that I love craigslist.com and all its fabulous deals. Heck, many folks who live within a 40 mile radius of my 33713 area code are responsible for furnishing my home. That said, opening up each and every ad to find the one blue striped chair I need for my living room or the oversized grass mat for my dining room is a real chore. Really, who has the time to wade through all those ”shabby chic”-labeled disasters to get to the good stuff? To the rescue: craiglook.com. This free handy website does what I’m hoping Craigslist execs will one day be wise enough to do: offer previews of each ad’s photo right on the search page. That way, you can simply scroll by the ones you don’t want and find out more about the ones you do. To use it: Log onto craiglook.com and type in what you’re looking for plus your zip code; all the Craigslist ads in your area matching your search criteria will be listed along with their picture previews. It’s that easy!

Thanks for the post ! Craigslook made my day !
So glad! It has personally saved me countless hours of searching Craigslist ads. I wonder why Craigslist doesn’t redesign their website this way?
