    Wow I like it I would do something a little more with the logo. Keep it simple but not that simple.

    Your biggest problem is going to be driving traffic to the site that's for sure. What are your plans on that?

    i like it its nice and clean, however you're going to need a hell of a lot more content/people otherwise its worthless. and thats no good. so good luck driving traffic i know if i see an empty site i immediately leave.

    When it comes to sites like this, the issue is traffic. Craigslist isn't very snazzy, and doesn't need to be. People can find what they need because there is A LOT of traffic. So, if I compare your site to craigslist, I'm going to compare what I can find on the site (not the design or features). Craigslist has thousands of ads in my city, your site has none in my state.

    logo needs some work indeed,
    rest looks ok. Only what others already said, craiglist is wellknown and to get in that circle is very difficult:

    he should not change his logo. have a look at craigslist logo it's even simpler- I think instead he'd better change/customize the pictures for each category

    Yes, nice site and powerfull. I like this site but I dont like 100% scale solutions, because my current resolution is 1280x800, it's so width for my eyes. :)
