=== CL Panel ===
Craigslist Panel,

I wrote this so I could search through all the available gigs or jobs on Craigslist.
The default behavior on the job search is to search for telecommute jobs.

The getit.pl is a perl script I wrote that .. well it isn't thread safe but it spawns out a bunch of workers that call the Linux CLI application 'links' and uses it to dump the results it finds.

I've decided to update this little thing to make the results into MySQL queries so the web interface just searches against a mysql database while the new intention of the getit.pl is to be ran as a cron job that runs at like 3 in the afternoon so you're getting good, up to date job results.

Craigslist is a valuable resource .. hopefully my tool helps some people harness it.

=== USE Examples ===

getit.pl "jobs|gigs" a_search_term
getit.pl "jobs|gigs" a_search_term a_date

I made it where it either only searches for today's results
IE Oct 23 or else you can pass it a date .. say you want the whole months
results just do

getit.pl jobs linux Oct
