    You would think with all that value you could get simple functions such as the search to work ;)

    It's more like 15 bucks... What assets do they have? Maybe back in the dot bomb days, but today? 15 million I might believe, but billion? I don't think so. Gonna have to see assets and cash and or receivables that back up that claim.

    You've got to be kidding right? No, I had never heard of them till today. I guess I am not often looking for a mutual masterbation partner, which seems to be about all they have to offer.

    God, that is the most hiddeous site I have ever seen? Are you sure that is the right URL?

    One other question. Just where does this Craiglist make its money? The site is completely devoid of advertising. This is probably what it's appeal is, I am assuming since I cannot find anything I like about it.

    The second someone decides to advertise, or change it's format, there go the loyalists, and there goes the value IMO.

    Craig pays for it out of pocket and from Businesses posting Job Classifieds.

    Craigslist looks terrible, but it works about 100X faster than ebay if you are selling something worth buying.

    Either way, makes no difference. Now that I see they have a 28 Alexa rating, I'm like totally convinced. They are worth 30 billion!
