Has Craig Moved On?
By Mark Evans | August 23, 2007
ValleyWag is suggesting that Craigslist domo Craig Newmark may be moving on - a possibility fueled by the fact he’s no longer listed on the company’s management page. With the iconic Craig out of the day-to-day picture could this be a sign that Craigslist is ready to really embrace capitalism and the concept of maximizing profits? With eBay getting more serious about Kijiji, now may be the right time for Craigslist to jump-start its strategic direction and expand its business - and I’m not talking about attracting more free listings.
Update: Rumours of Craig’s departure are premature. He’s alive, well and continues on as Mr. Customer service for Craigslist. See his comment.
