General Comments
This is a popular site and you might get social kudos for using it.

But in terms of useabilty, it's very poor.

This site is powered by yahoogroups, and there's a separate group for each geographical area, moderated by locals of the area. And they don't like people from other areas using "their" group.



Suppose you wake up one day and decide you need some thing.

It's very difficult to search back posts on yahoogroups.

Then you have to sit for days reading every new post hoping things will be listed.

It's mind numbing man! This is NOT what the internet in the 21st century is about!



Compare it to one of these sites



recycle.co.uk

efreeko.co.uk

ecyclebin.com

communityfreebay.co.uk

giveortake.org



and you'll see what I mean.
