New eBay site: Kijiji.com

[INVIGOR]

So, do you think Craig should have sold for big $$$ when he had the chance? This site is designed to compete directly with him.

By the way, anybody ever go to craiglist.com? How come he hasn't tried to get this site?

Anyhow, for kijiji.com:

What a horrible name choice for a company of that size... geez.... I think craigslist has reached critical mass and wont have to worry too much.

I read an interview with him recently, he seems happy running his site the way it is.

kijiji sounds like some kind of spit, or the old red dwarf series back in
the uk with the hairy people who look like chewbacker from starwars
which talk like this ka kijiji k k kijiji ka kk kaj kijiji. :boink:

kijiji was released 2 years ago. I often post on kijiji.co.jp

Anyways..eBay owns 25% of Craigslist. The market is definitely big enough for 2 classified sites and that is the aim for eBay

Yeah, I read it's been up in other places for a while and the current launch is North America. I didn't know they owned 25% of ebay. I thought the last time I read about Craig, he was pretty happy flying solo. I think it was 60 mins or 20/20 or something like that.

Anyhow, yeah, the NAME SUCKS!

I don't even see it on their home page anymore but that had been part of their sub menu at the bottom of the page for a very long time.

The site is actually pretty good to buy and sell on. It's been around awhile now.

Brutal name, nice site. Visited Craig's forthe first time yesterday (ironically); pretty easy to navigate, but needs a makeover big time - IMO
