Project Description:

I've been buying items of Craigslist recently and I need a script developed for me. There is a certain search term that I search for in my local listing, I usually just hit refresh over and over. In order to get to each offer in time, I need to be notify immediately as they are posted.

I'm looking for a creative solution. I have an iPhone - All I need to be delivered to my phone is the name of the listing and the link to the posting.

So I need a script or applet made, I don't care how, that alerts to my phone with a link to the posting everytime it is posted.

My iPhone is jailbroken which means I can install a created app. You could also use a Perl script. The more convenient the better. Text messages would work well if I could access the link to the posting quickly.

In your PM please tell me your plan and if you've done anything similar in the past. When i select the bidder I'll tell you the search term and what citie(s) for craigslist to use.

Skills required:

iPhone, Perl, PHP, Script Install, Web Scraping
