web2.0: Craigslist API - Getting RSS for a specific query
December 18th, 2008 by jeremychoneJust found out that if you add “&format=rss” to any Craigslist URL, you get the RSS format.
This was probably a known API, but somehow it took me some time to find it out (clicking on the URL bar RSS Icon does not always give the RSS content of the current query)
Example:
Web page: http://sfbay.craigslist.org/search/sss?query=prius
RSS page: http://sfbay.craigslist.org/search/sss?query=prius&format=rss
Who said craigslist was a closed service!
