Are there any other sites besides craigslists that have a good size list of apartment listings?

I am looking for an apartment in the Brooklyn area of New York City, but am very tired of craigslist, Please share any other FREE sites that I can search for an apartment, emphasis on FREE site listings. I am not looking for a sublet.com or rdny.com where you are charged a fee just to look at their database.

http://newyork.backpage.com - service looks just like craigslist.

http://www.flyrig.com - mostly posted by brokers, so very likely you'll have to pay a broker's fee when signing the lease. If you're looking for by-owner listings, craigslist is still the best place to look. If you don't mind paying a broker's fee, you can try using flyrig's matchmaker service...you supply your requirements and brokers get back to you with properties (free to use).

http://www.citycribs.com - listings supplied by brokers

http://www.hotpads.com - all map-based browsing. A little hard to navigate though...

Apartments.com
ForRent.com
Rent.com

Local newspapers usually carry a substantial amount of apartment ads.
