Craigslist is the saddest example of a near natural monopoly formed in a two-sided market on the internet. Considering the pace of innovation over there, it's only a matter of time until they are disrupted. In the meantime we'll dread looking for apartments, buying/selling through classified ads, and anything else that we need to do on Craigslist.


I don't get your comment. How is Craigslist sad? Everyone seems to use them and I hear very few complaints.

And I personally find the website very easy to navigate.
