Craigsnotifica

     Today we review "Craigsnotifica".  This is actually more useful than I thought it would be!  I figured it would just be a modified mobile page of Craigslist, but it has a little more than that.
     The most useful thing that I found about it was that you can set it up to send you a notification whenever something you're searching for becomes available on Craigslist.  So the first thing I wanted to do was see if it worked properly.
     After downloading the free application off of the Android Market I decided to adjust the settings so that every time something was listed in the free category it notified my by a sms ring.  The free things listed on Craigslist generally go fast and I thought this would be a good way to have the upper hand amongst the other people searching for free stuff to sell or clutter the closets.  After about 1hour of my phone blinking and making non-stop noises I realized that maybe just setting it to everything free wasn't the best idea.
     Overall I think it's a great app for anyone who likes to buy and sell on Craigslist, or if you're just trying to find that one thing before someone else get's to it.  There are settings for region, networking, templates, and of course your notification via sms or email. 8.5/10
