    Global search on Craigslist

    Last year I saw a post refferring to making a global search on Craigslist straight from the Google search entry bar. Can't remember how it was done or find the post. I would really appreciate a reminder. Thanks!

    I use it often for 'price comparisons'.

    I also use Search Tempest to search CL, it allows you to search all the local CL's within a certian radius of your Zip code, it's very handy.

    You can also enter by state and have multiple states searched. I prefer this method to the global method since I am usually looking for machines and though I am willing to travel I don't want to see a huge bargain 2,500 miles from me, it is just depressing.
