Phew! It took about one month and a half to complete from scratch.

I'm using Perl/MySQL and HTML/Javascript.

As far as I can tell, it works fine in Firefox, IE8, Safari and Chrome. Any Opera users out there who can test it? Linux/FreeBSD users are welcome too.

If you have any questions or comments, please let me know. And thanks!!!

I do not know about the status of your competitors. But imagine if a web-app like that could be used at every college and every university. This could have thousands of users. Not as a personal flyer but as a wall that every one could post something of use.

Yeah, that's the original idea. Something that students and staff can use to post and reach those who are off-campus (in my university, we are by the hundreds, each one of us potential patrons, customers, participants of the places and events they promote in those flyers).
