Shit, I'm sorry. I meant to vote Craigslist up but instead gave your comment the fat-fingered iPad treatment.
Well I wasn't going to vote up or down, so consider my up vote a fix for your down vote.
I downvoted both of you, so there. :P
Wait, seriously? Down votes for this? I don't get you sometimes, HN.
At least here in NYC, the % of listings on Craigslist that are freelance is rather low and in general, given the time that most people put into posting jobs in general, the overall quality seems to be low.
That's been my experience. I haven't really seen a good freelance job board with high-quality postings and lack of sketchy characters since 37signals Gig Board.
