Free Personal Ads

» Internet

Craig Newmark explains why Craiglist’s personal ads are free:

Five or so years ago, I asked people what it was they’d like us to charge for. The answer was to charge those people who would otherwise be paying more, for less effective advertising. The consensus was to specifically charge for real estate and job postings. … People have suggested we charge for personals as a way to improve quality; but there’s no consensus.

How do you feel?

Feel free to share your feelings about Free Personal Ads. Please stick to the theme of the entry. Disagreement is fine. Homophobia, racism, and kindred expressions of hatred will be deleted. This site is one of my hobbies. I genuinely enjoy hearing from people and hate moderating or killing comments. Forthright disagreement is fine as long as it is civil.
My thanks,
Richard
