The popular American free classifieds site Craigslist has launched a site for Sydney, (Australia)
When you consider that newspaper classifieds are most at risk of losing revenue to Craigslist, it’s strange that I found out about the launch from the Sydney Morning Herald business section. You’d think they’d be the last to want to publicise it.

I was sure I’d seen a Sydney section on Craig’s list a few years ago.
It looks like Both Sydney and Melbourne sections were avaiable as far back as 17 March 2003, though not from 5 June 2002.

I read in SMH Good Weekend that there is a Brisbane ‘edition’ – how do I find that? Am interested in jobs available, book crossing, etc. etc.
EDITOR: To see if Craiglist has a site for a particular city you just need to type :
http://cityname.craigslist.org/
Into your browser. In this case what you want is http://brisbane.craigslist.org/
PS If your reference to “book crossing” means you’re a member of bookcrossing.com, then you need to join the Brisbane Bookcrossing Yahoo group to see what events they have planned
I was so happy when I found this post, but then I saw that it was posted in 2004
