Ebay trying to compete with Craigslist - Kijiji?
www.kijiji.com/
I find it amusing when a company tries to compete with an established niche player. How many companies tried to compete with Ebay and failed? Now Ebay wants to take on Craigslist? I just don't see that working out.

Ebay also owns 25% of Craigslist. Try something new, but hedge.

if they can effectively keep out the '2003 BMW 325i $3,500' spammers i'll switch. i am tired of sifting through the bull**** spam on CL.

Craigslist is only as good as the people selling there stuff on it. And they ain't too good!

Wayne have you ever checked out sites like 'craigshelper'? It is sooo strange that the CL people despise any form of efficiency. but then in that vain i guess they are trying to hold true to the 'pennysaver' days of old, which i can appreciate.
