Craig and his wonderful list
The good thing about Craigslist: It's a window into our fellow community members' wants, needs and aspirations. The bad thing about Craigslist: It's a window into our fellow community members' wants, needs and aspirations.

The greatest thing about Craigslist is the relative lack of moderation. The best - and worst - human foibles reveal themselves, and unless you're an obvious scammer your post remains up for everyone to see. The site originated in SF before the dot-com boom... when there was a feeling of freedom, that people could have a place online where they could trust one another and trade/buy/sell things and feel safe doing so. Things have occasionally gotten a little more sketchy since then, but the site is still great, and a go-to if you want to buy a piece of furniture or try for a "casual encounter." ;)
