Really craigslist and maybe a classified ad in the newspaper would be the best route for quick results. Anywhere else might be a little more costly to advertise outside of the old realtor approach of a few signs at some high traffic corners. Some realtors may even list it in the MLS but will want a commission of the downpayment and such.
Also try Zillow.com I'm not sure of specifics on how to post stuff on there but it's worth looking into. It also doesn't hurt to post it on Facebook as well. You never know who on your friends list knows a guy who works with someone that needs a place. Word of mouth travels. A guy I work with just bought a house that someone had put on their Facebook page.
And make sure to put the word out to ALL your friends and acquaintances. When I was struggling to find a place on short notice, it was amazing to me how many ppl actually knew of, or even had places to rent that I found out AFTER the fact. When I say to them, "darn, I didnt know you had a place for rent," they reply "I didnt know you were looking!" So get the word out to anybody and everybody! Lastly, if you have any local universities, there should be a boards you can put flyers up on! Gluck bro!

Even Facebook got a few of my friends to take a look when I was selling my condo.
