Craigslist finally enters the 21st century

I’ve often scratched my head and wondered why Craigslist didn’t have a blog.    I mean, everyone else had one, even the spotty kid down the street with his skateboard and Star Wars trading card collection.   But not Craigslist.   Even when the crap hit the fan over hookers advertising their wares on the site and a blog would have been the perfect platform with which to respond, did they go ahead and set a blog up?   Like hell they did.

But now someone seems to have told Craigslist that this is the 21st century and a blog has duly been set up.    But now here’s the kicker - they forgot to include a RSS feed!      What the hell is going on?   Is this amateur hour or something?   Couldn’t they have set the thing up on Blogger or Wordpress or something?

But don’t worry, ReadWriteWeb cobbled together a Feedburner feed so you can have the Craigslist posts sent to your RSS reader.   It isn’t perfect but it’s better than nothing.    Meanwhile, Craigslist, why don’t you fire your 10 year old blog designer and hire someone half-competent?
