They make such a cute couple | 10.09.2005












I know everyone has heard of Craig's list. I actually like it better than ebay-it's quicker to post, quicker to sell and there is usually no shipping involved. I recently sold my new iPod nano (too small and sound was less than perfect), iPod 2nd generation, Fuji 6 x 9 camera, Airport wireless card and my kids (joke).

There is a cool new utility that adds a genius mix to it all-the cross pollination of two of the best resources available on the internet-- Google's new mapping service, and the classified listings page, Craigslist. This utility lets you surf both at once-- you can select city, price range, and drag along a map while seeing icons representing apartments for rent or sale. It shows you which listings have pictures, and which don't--and even gives little thumbnails of the property. Now if you're not like my friend Jonathan who walks around neighborhoods in Portland to find houseing, you'll really need this! Make sure to use Firefox if you're on a Mac, Safari has quirks.
