uh.... there is NOTHING web 2.0 about CL


well it's profitable... actually you're right


That was his point, web 2.0 is blogging about ongoing litigation.


From Wikipedia:

"Web 2.0 describes web sites that use technology beyond the static pages of earlier web sites...A Web 2.0 site may allow users to interact and collaborate with each other"

Craigslist, along with Flickr, Twitter, etc, are the quintessential Web 2.0 sites.


Sorry, craigslist predates that definition. It predates wikipedia as well.

I've been in Silicon Valley since 1996, CL is not Web 2.0

CL was originally a mailing list operated from well.sf.ca.us, iirc.
