Search Tempest For Craigslist?
 
Search Tempest for Craigslist is no longer working the same way. Are there any similar apps out there I should look into? Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!!!

Thanks In Advance

allofcraigs.com has changed too and no longer functions the same as it did.

I can't see what the big deal is or why Craigslist and Kijiji don't offer this type of search engine for their sites.

Crazedlist also no longer works. Supposedly Craigslist changed something in their programming that keeps these bulk search engines from working. I also read that Ebay owns 25% of Craigslist and doesn't want them competing on a national level.

try this:

[porsche 911] site:craigslist.org

obviously, place your search text between the brackets

Yep, just use Google. It does a great job. Use the modifiers on the left side for "Past week", "Past month", etc.

Yes, use this in Google. I'm not sure what Motion means by the left side modifiers.

google search doesn't allow you to search specific craigslist areas, though. Searchtempest allows you to search cragislist sites within a range of a zip code. That's helpful if you want to weed out listings from 2000 miles away. Also, I don't believe google updates quickly. Directly hitting the craigslist.org sites allows you to see new listings before they hit google's cache..

Search Tempest worked for me earlier today(?).

Crazedlist.org has been taken down before and returned....Noticed it's down again as of a week or so ago........The trouble with some of these other searches is that it often brings up expired/sold listings....
