Website Review by: tp123     



Kijiji,

the Swahilian word for village, is a free local classifieds site where you can buy and sell used and new goods. Post your ads and look for jobs, cars, furniture, pets, vacations and much more.  Find new local services, people and events.


Launched on March 2005, the site is available in Italy, Canada, China, France, India, Japan and Taiwan.  As well as many cities in the United States and more than 300 cities in Germany.   


Kijiji is a subsidiary of eBay who acquired similar classifieds sites in order to enhance their service; on November 2004 eBay acquired, Marktplaats.nl for the Netherlands' users which, under the name Intoko, branched out to Canada, Germany, Spain and Turkey.  On May 2005, eBay acquired Gumtree for cities in Australia, New Zealand, Ireland and Britain.
