craigsy
the document sent by
craigslist regarding our service is linked below. as of now, i know of no
practical way to add radius and zip code area search to the craigslist
interface. and based on what i've read it is not something worth pursuing. a
friend is creating a multi-classified search with
zip and radius, it just won't
include craigslist.
for anyone looking for geolocation and zip-to-zip
distance calculations, you can start with a free zip database from
maxmind. the actual
calculations, in my opinion, are best done with a broad mysql query followed by
php exact radius calculations.
this
articleis a great explanation.
i would suggest you check it out, and
steer clear of craigslist, you can read the complaints they had
here.
thank you to everyone! - morgan
