    today was the first day i actually went on the site (no joke)

    even after months of reading articles on it in the news, i never went on it, today i went on it and realized its one of the ugliest sites ive ever seen, and it doesnt seem user friendly at first

    what are your thoughts...will i get used to it?

    seems to be very user friendly actually. Takes you through each page very well without confusing you.. Just doesnt look nice maybe, and i guess initially its hard to find things.

    I've used it to find roomates here with a lot of success. Very good results for me.

    Craigs list is excellent. It is one of my favorite sites(after my own) and I visit it often. It is a good place to get deals on computers, games, appliances, software, escorts, and just about anything else you need.

    I sold a coffee table a couple of months ago. Had several replies. Was pretty surprised that I was able to sell it quickly. Great website

    It makes money by selling ads at a few cities. In one or two cities, craigslist charges you to post job ads and a few other types of ads.
