kottke.org posts about 'craigslist'

Craigslist desperately needs something like Listpic...simple pages of thumbnails from CL ads by category. Here's the page for NYC furniture.

Where do Craigslist's Missed Connections occur in NYC? Gawker has the breakdown by location and subway line.

Andy on some recent baiting of people looking for sex on Craigslist. "In a staggering move, he then published every single response, unedited and uncensored, with all photos and personal information to [the web]."

Interview with Jim Buckmaster, who gives us an update on what Craiglist is up to. "If I look across the Internet at the big Internet companies, there's a large proportion of their staff that are devoted in various ways to trying to maximize revenue. Those employees I don't think are delivering much bang for the buck to the end user."

Anil on the conservatism of liberalism (by way of explaining why Craigslist is taking away everyone else's classifieds business). "A complete unwillingness to be critical, an almost astoundingly low set of criteria for acceptance -- these aren't the traits that encourage a community or a culture to improve."

Wanna go work for Thomas Keller? Per Se is using Craigslist to fill some server openings in the front of the house.

NYC Craigslist computer services offered: "Will read and comment (semi-intelligently) on your blog for $2". There's a five comment minimum with future comments for free (!!) if your site is entertaining enough. (via lia (rhymes!)) Update: doh, the page has expired. It was pretty funny though, sorry you missed it.

A craigslist missed connection for any of the hot women who were in the audience for Edward Tufte's lecture. Not too picky, this guy, he'll take any beautiful woman who was there. Quick, someone snap him up before he makes another sparklines pun.

How craigslist has changed NYC.
