NEW LOCATION
I use the typical things you would imaging, but to keep an edge I have a set of software constantly checking kijiji and posting new ads to my cell that match my criteria.
That's cool. Can you elaborate on the RSS thing & do you have a link for boxer? I never knew such apps existed. I promise no-compete on Kijiji, I'm more of an ebay hound anyway :\
I think there are ways to set up alerts there too but using their rudimentary tools. I'd probably deplete my piggy bank if it started feeding me deals.
I just have the Kijiji app and have certain searches saved like "Lathe" and then it automatically checks once a day and notifies me if anything is new. Probably not nearly as good as that RSS thing, I'm not a technology guy. I'll have to look into that.
RSS readers are actually more of an old school software, not nearly as common as they once were.
You'll probably have the best luck googling the same for a full explanation, but essentially, many websites with dynamic or user contributed content keep a "feed" or "RSS feed" running with all the latest stuff in it. Hand in hand are readers that check frequently for changes to the feed.
