Although I have yet to find a free site that matches craigslist in size and market penetration, Facebook could have something to give Craig Newmark some heartburn. Then again, as mentioned, Newmark probably doesn’t even care.

Emmanuel;
Seriously - with Facebook entering the market, what reasonable chance do you have to compete? What can you do to get kids to leave facebook and use your site?

If this pans out for Facebook, so much for Walamu (http://www.walamu.com). We are really hoping to get the traction we need next school year. However, since we are still only open to one college, we feel that we could still keep it focused there and accommodate to needs of those college students that Facebook might not necessarily be able to do. To be honest, we’ve actually tried to stay out of the limelight and off TC this entire time because we didn’t want to be another company that gets their five minutes of fame and then disappears. Organic growth is what we’ve been after. However, we’re not done yet.

Nonetheless, we’ll see how this pans out. If anything, we’ve certainly learned a lot. Everyone knows the college classifieds space isn’t some brilliant original idea…however, it’s certainly a space that hasn’t been dominated (up until Facebook classifieds). It’s been interesting to see the various strategies that have taken place by various companies (Chegg and CollegeMedium included) to win this space though.

To Steve M.:

Most people will probably sell the biggest seller - textbooks and other common college supplies to their broader overall college and geographical network not to their 3-50 friends

My college network has 47000 people respectively - enough people to sell to id think

George and Emmanuel: I am just offering feedback on your site and if that is polluting the blogosphere then so be it. I have offered that feedback before to you guys but nothing was done. The site if off all alexa, compete rankings. Seems like the users are jumping ship!!

Hmmm…so this is going to work (bringing you absolute top dollar) because of the huge exposure you’re sure to get…from allowing the monster-sized market of 3-50 of your “friends” to know about whatever it is you’re selling…as opposed to sites–and yes; newspapers, too; with many 1,000’s of people will see your ad…hmmm…

To Brad: I find it funny that people like you can sit back and disparage other people who take risks and develop something tangible. I ask you Brad, what contributions have you made to the web other than polluting it with ridiculous blog responses?

Although there are too many classified sites these days I think they probably success because of it’s closed network nature.

“…no one can beat craigslist ..period”

Isn’t the goal of Craigslist to provide a service with social resposibility in mind?
i.e., Craigslist is not competing. They do claim to be communists after all.

We understand that Emmanuel. I am glad you have planned to shut down the business even before the threat (facebook) came out. Looking at the site, that was always the best option =)

We saw this coming, and planned accordingly — No worries… =)

There are a bunch of smaller Verticlans (http://www.verticlans.com) sites set up on my campus. I know a few dorms that have some, some sports teams, and smaller departments. Same idea, but not limited to one pre-exisitng real-world network.
