Even found some interesting stuff in my little town. I had a look at americanlisted and I agree on that it’s very neat. Even found some interesting stuff in my little town.

Nice site, but they are not showing all cities in US. I just find out a new site called americanlisted.com. You can select every state, city, zip code etc. The point with classifieds is to be local. I don't want go to other cities to buy for example a used bike for $50. I like the ´structure they have. It's so easy. http://www.americanlisted.com Look forward your comments. Jack.

Totally worth taking a look at.

Having a aggregator like Oodle provides more convenience. I agree, specialty websites, like real shops, provide better results. Having a aggregator like Oodle provides more convenience.

However, I've found myself gravitating towards the vertical specific engines for things like house, jobs and cars; I've found the vertical search engines to have better and more indepth functionalities given their sole focus on one thing. For house listing searches, I use Trulia; for jobs, I use indeed.com; for car search, I use iseecars.com.

Either way, its good to see some color on a classifieds site, and the lack of graphics will definitely cause fewer distractions and promote a "get in, get out" mindset. If someone was looking for more than just a quick fix, I'd suggest taking a look at iList. It's a great social classifieds site which promotes a community and is all about users helping other users spread the word about their listings to maximize their audience.
