I've been using craigslist since it was an e-mail list -- long gone are the days when you could store boolean searches and have only certain types of new posts sent to you but the concept still works. Craigslist is the only place I use in apartment searches, and it is a primary location for job searches.
Anytime I want to find something cheap - I look here. I got great climbing gear (new!) off Craigslist. My boyfriend sold his car in less than 24 hours on Craigslist!
Sometimes, the folks on Craigslist can be flaky -- in fact, it's a notorious problem. People call and express interest but never show up.
For a good laugh, check out the "Best of" or just browse the personals. It's a scary place, I warn you.

I've gotten my last three jobs after posting my resume on Craigslist. I've sold stuff, and bought stuff. I love craigslist.

i've been using craiglist since it was the "listfoundation" and only in the bay area... (i'm O.G). every apartment, motorcycle, and job i've had, along with basically anything else you can dream up has been found on craigslist. i read the missed connections all the time (i've found postings looking for me!), and the rants and community board is extremely useful. craig newmark is also putting a lot into the community as well as trying to regular net neutrality. good times, good times.

Craigslist enables massive "cradle-to-cradle", aka "zero waste" living. Plus, it's ad-free, fast, ubiquitous, and has that "random" magic.
I've gotten a few of these from C-list: furniture, technojunk, car, jobs, roommates, small-biz sales channel support, new hires. i don't surf missed connections and wonder if i've missed anything!

Craigslist is a great way to keep 'sustainable.' Buying used couches/tables/chairs/tvs/electronics/cars, etc. is one of the best ways to 'recycle' and reduce the amount of garbage we put out there.
They also have a free section, which ties into the whole 'freecycle' concept.

We have found our new apt, new jobs, and pretty much everything in our apt. on Craig's List.
It is the best way to get rid of things that would otherwise go to the landfill! :)
