Craigslist-phone-search is a simple userscript. It finds the phone number and email in the Craigslist post and creates an easy web search links for them. The functionality is simple. It saves user couple of mouse clicks and maybe few more if the user wants to perform search within Craigslist only.
Useful tool if you visit craigslist.org often.
Originally this feature was part of my craigslist-car-research extension. Which was limited to Cars & Trucks listing section only. And the idea behind it was to find out if the car seller is selling other cars or stuff on Craigslist to indicate if s/he is a reseller/moving out etc. Now as a separate extension craigslist-phone-search works in almost all sections of Craigslist.
Also available as a Google Chrome extension (craigslist phone email search). Latest changes comes in chrome extension first.
