I recently went through the process of finding a place to live and buying furniture for that place and found clicking through each listing on Craigslist super annoying. So I wrote a Greasemonkey script that makes browsing a ton of listings super easy.  Here it is.

What it does

• Clicking on a listing link opens stripped-down contents of that listing directly underneath the link – rather than going to another page
• Pressing Alt-K scrolls through listings downwards, opening one a time.  Alt-J scrolls upwards.

How to get it

1. Install the Greasemonkey for Firefox if you don’t have it already (and restart browser)
2. Click this link to install the latest version of the script
3. Try it out!

Notes

I’ve released the code is released under the MIT license.  It includes code adapted from this script for including jQuery in a Greasemonkey script, also licensed under the MIT license.  If you find a bug or want to contribute you can find the project under Google Code.  Also, feel free to leave any questions in the comments.
