I have been a big fan of Craigslist. Mostly at the conceptual level because so far I haven’t really had any need to get something out of the site. But that doesn’t mean I don’t like browsing around the various listings and see whats going on. Be its classifieds like apartments, cars or even temp stay-at-home software jobs, or even the free section, where people simply want to dispose off stuff and need you to carry it off from them.
The best part about this whole thing is there are no ads and, generally, hardly ever any spam as well.
Craigslist has been a major disruptive force for newspapers and done more than anybody else in hurting their bottom line. Of course it would easy to blame the internet for this but a lot of credit goes to this website specifically which doesn’t charge any fees for bring the buyer and seller together on the same platform.
