NY Times: Craig (of the List) Looks Beyond the Web. (NY Times photo) Excerpt: There is a real Craig in Craigslist, and lately he is looking at life beyond his little list that happens to be the seventh-most-popular Web site in the United States. It is also a site that is deeply tied up with the fate of newspapers ??? indeed, many in the newspaper industry blame the site???s founder, Craig Newmark, for the downturn in their classified-advertising business. An ardently no-frills, ad-free, user-sensitive site, Craigslist has, by the estimate of its chief executive, Jim Buckmaster, generated more than 600 million free classified listings.
