Craigsmonitor

As a soon-to-be grad student, I will additionally soon-to-be broke. This means that I will be using sites like Craigslist a lot more. That being said, I have a problem with Craigslist.
My problem with Craigslist is that if you’re looking for something specific, for example “2002 Ford Escape” and you want to be competitive on the buy, you have to return to Craigslist several times each day, every day, to keep up to date. And if you're looking for something in a rural area, like Bloomington, IN, you need to return day after day to see if there were any updates. Bummer!
This is where Craigsmonitor comes in. Aptly named, Craigsmonitor monitors Craigslist for any updates to a product you desire. If there are any updates, it will email you a list of fresh posts on an hourly, daily, twice daily or thrice daily basis.
Also, no passwords or registration – you make a list and get an email. That’s it.
Please let us know what you think about Craigsmonitor.
