Kill the paged list on the homepage right now. I can't imagine a worse user experience than seeing 10 cities I don't live in, with the only way to find mine being to randomly select pages in the hope of landing on the right one. Or, of course I can page through every city you have. I never made it as far as finding Seattle, and finally just clicked one at random because I'm explicitly giving you a shot. Had I found your site while browsing the web, I would have left and never come back. So please, stop it. Just give me the whole list and let me pick from it.

Agreed. Or a stylized map (some geolocation magic would be nice) that lets you click in your general area then select the exact city of interest. The Craigslist city picker is bad, but the paged list is worse. Keep in mind one of the big Craigslist complaints is the city segregation making it harder for people in areas between a bunch of cities. This is an area to improve on, not to mimic.

100% agree with this - in fact I was about to make the same comment. Many user agents allow you to request the users location these days, why not do it automatically, or even use their IP to figure it out?
