Craigslist is what everyone wanted the Internet to be like from the beginning. It's a free and open community of people who talk, trade, barter, discuss, and learn, all with a local audience. Craigslist started in San Francisco, but has spread to hundreds of local websites, each focusing on a major city or cultural center. Craigslist is a perfect complement to the Sacramento Wiki.
