Hi Rabble, Thanks for the link. I made a pipe last week after we talked about it. As it turns out the pipe creation is very easy. I was confused at getting the results on a map . When you are in programming mode you don't get to see the map. It isn't unitl you "Run" the pipe that you get the map. The reuslts are still mixed however. You can see from my pipe http://pipes.yahoo.com/pipes/pipe.info?_id=aiU_wL2T3BGjIr7sX0sBXw that the "location extractor" widget still gets it a little wrong, even though I am using chicago.craigslist.com for my data. I suppose I will have to for the City to the one that I am looking for.
