I can't express how much I despise Etsy. Good luck.

Why?

There is a vast amount of discontent in the Etsy community, and this has been the case as long as I've been involved (2006). The complaints of their customers apply to nearly every area of the company and are well-founded.

Very cool. I may have missed this but is there a way to share the links? It doesn't seem like I can add multiple recipient email addresses and the links only seem to work for my google account as far as I can tell. I guess I'd have to change the recipient to an inbox that forwards to multiple people?

You can just share the link. Also, the "multiple recipient" feature is nearly there.

Interesting. Etsy was the idea I had years before they actually did it, and always regretted not following it up.

Hmm...

Just because the only way I think it will take off is if the ratings are displayed on the actual craigslist posts.

I would totally use that as a plugin. Why do you think that couldn't/wouldn't take off?

Well, I was counting on the viral aspect where you saw a rating and said, I want one of those. My gut says that most people who do that will not want to install a browser plugin. Even if I made one for all possible browsers.

It's also hard for it to spread through the plugin directories because the people who download it would be too geographically fragmented.
