Edgeio is about to launch a free service that will make it simpler for you to use your company blog to widely distribute job listings, a service or product for sale, or anything else for which you’d have traditionally used eBay or Craigslist as a centralized market.

You’ll post a listing on your own blog and add the tag ‘listing’ or ‘listings’. That’s it. You can also go claim your blog (as you’d do for Technorati), use more descriptive tags to improve visibility, and add the Edgeio ping servers to your blog (Weblogs Work will be doing this for our clients) to make Edgeio work even better for you.

We wrote more about Edgeio here. You can also follow the launch at the Edgeio blog. Or track what people are saying about it.
