Craigslist is a Bay Area institution. It's the best place to find an apartment, a date, a car, whatever--you can generally find it on Craigslist. Best of Craigslist is often hilarious. Now they've come to Raleigh. Not much there now, but will be worth checking out soon.

Craigslist is what the Internet was invented for... one of the few things that exist still in the spirit of the earlier days in the web. We have it in Boston... it totally rocks....

You could make an argument that Craigslist is what the internet was invented for. Afterall, it's little more than a glorified message board. The Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/) is clearly what the web was invented for though.

Wow! that is most impressive! thank you for the url! Ok Craigslist , The Wikipedia , AND Project Gutenberg www.gutenberg.net . In short, anything that supplies information or allows the transfer of information for a non-commericial purpose.

ok ... if we really wanted to be technical the U.S. Millitary would state that the Internet was invented as the main information network for the government in case of a nuclear war.

Craigslist is in fact the best thing on the internet. I've noticed that the regional CLs take a while to take off - here's hoping your local one thrives, because it truly is the best resource *ever*.

Believe it or not, I've actually met the Craig at a party once.
