well looks like craigslist put an end to craiglook.com's craigslist search, so now its back to searching each individual city and state on craigslist, now when you use craiglook (now called claz) it only gives you listings from claz, i think its total bs

Well......That's Crap, IMO.
I was getting to be a huge fan of CraigsLook. It was much much easier to "Target" specific items you were looking for, whether you were looking locally or natiowide.
One of the biggest problems with CL is that it's so convaluted with millions and millions of ads that it's difficult to use nowadays. There are literally thousands of discussions going on all over the internet about how outdated CL programming is and how much of a pain in the asss it is to use now. In those discussions, people have discussed about sending numerous messages to CL itself on ideas how to improve their service, but CL has refused to budge on making their format easier to use.
The death of CraigsLook may be the slow start to the death of Craigslist unless Craigslist works with Craigslook to use part of their searching formats on Craigslist itself. If Craigslist does not do this, then someone with a good online marketing plan could easily come up with a Craigslist/Craigslook combined program that integrates the ad program of Craigslist along with the search program of Craigslook that might become the next internet sensation. Believe me, there are millions of ad placers out there that wish there was an alternative to Craigslist they could go to today. (Forget "oodle.com". Their system sucks, they had a chance and blew it)
Try "jaxed.com", you can serch CL by regions. It works pretty good.

yeah... craiglook was starting to be my favorite... ive reverted back to www.searchallcraigs.com Not anywhere as good as craiglook, but it gets the job done. Also, on my iphone ive used "craigs pro" (free download) and it works ok if you dont mind looking at a tiny little screen all day.
