I automated my housing search. When I moved to a new city (Cape Town, South Africa), there are a wide range of different classified websites that advertise house sharing. The market in Cape Town is extremely competitive and does not favour tenants. I wrote a series of python scripts that trawled through these online classified and automatically created responses to them. The aggregation of content and the auto creation of emails saved me a great deal of time and allowed me to quickly respond to hundreds of adverts from a variety of sites almost as soon as they were created.
