Just-hatched apartment search engine MyNewPlace offers a database of over 6 million apartment rentals for those of you on the hunt for new digs.
Positioned to compete with Craigslist, users can post comments on apartments and the locations are displayed on a Google Map. Apartment owners pay a fee to post on MyNewPlace, and users get a $150 rebate for signing a rental agreement after using the site. My initial searches turned around decent (but not stellar) results in San Diego as well as NYC - but you have to register to see details on an apartment result. (Lame, MyNewPlace.) Filter your search by a whole bunch of criteria as well, like number of bedrooms, pets policy, rent range and amenities like exercise facilities and a pool.
