30 years of craigslist: philanthropy

A decade ago, I realized that I could do a much better job helping people via philanthropy than at craigslist

Also, I realized that craigslist customer service didn't really need me any more, so I retired at the end of 2018 to do full time philanthropy

30 years of craigslist: missed connections

I've gotten a lot of wedding invitations over the site’s 30 years. I like that.

Nowadays, Mrs. Newmark uses craigslist to give stuff away, and to find furniture deals, almost all for family.

However, she got us the great bench you see here.

No big deal...

30 years of craigslist: has craig used craigslist?

Yup, I've used craigslist myself, but only infrequently, 20 or so years ago. I remember selling this car.

I hesitate, since it feels like a conflict of interest.

30 years of craigslist: public profile and reputation
(1/6)

Unfortunately, I've learned things the hard and sometimes very painful way.

In school of any sort, they just don't talk about social skills required to be successful at anything.

When I funded BlueStarFamily to create the #DoYourPart campaign, this is what I hoped for—real communities stepping up for military families. Grateful to see NJ join as a Do Your Part state, with Gov & First Lady Murphy & NatlGovsAssoc leading the way.

30 years of craigslist: design for regular people

The constant feedback I've seen is that people use craigslist to make their lives easier in the here and now.

That requires a design that gets to the point fast and doesn’t change much.
