Just looked at it and it is a total knock off of Craigslist.

They have been around for some time. Almost 3 years ago[1] they bought LoQUO.com a kind of craiglist, and as far as I know the most successful one, for Barcelona (although it has now expanded to all Spain).

Ok Gumtree is a better name than Kijiji.

That has to be the worse name for a website I've seen. Can you imagine trying to tell that to someone in real life?
