Craigslist

Craigslist gives people the ability to post ads up on the Internet free of charge. Before Craigslist, the way to inform people that things were being sold, was through the newspaper. The downside to that is the newspaper costs money and not everyone reads it. Craigslist has a large variety of subjects, which makes it easier to pinpoint exactly what you are looking for. If you are a customer, it is more convenient to look through Craigslist. Another feature it has is the ability to post up pictures of the product. In the newspaper, there would be a tiny section advertising what was being sold, but on Craigslist, the post can be as big as you would like it, with as much description as possible, and with pictures. It is a very useful site because you could look and find exactly what you want, which makes things easier.
