incampus is something i may use if it gets popular enough. i think it would solve campus problems, where the communication is just so bad everywhere. there seem to be a ton of groups that are ready on campus, but they are too small and don’t share information amongs each other. if something can come together and centalize all of that knowledge of classifieds on campus…it would be a heaven sent. the registration process is too long as well. craigslist has an advantage over them, in this sense.
daylit sounds like a pretty cool site as well. although im not sure how it works even gonig to their website, which is very confusing.
Dear TagURLs,
Please be careful with unfounded statements. A simple whois search would have revealed when Backtags registered their domain and started working on the project.
Tagurls.com = registered 27 May 2007
It appears that your site name changed from
delexa.org = registered 17 January 2007
Backtags.com registered 23 August 2006.
Your Backtags Team
BackTags is a straight rip off of my site, http://www.tagurls.com/ Only with more 2.0 and less features.
