Craigslist for no good?

On Sunday, the Baltimore Sun’s Tricia Bishop writes about how some people have taken to using Craigslist for no good, including pranks on friends and acquaintances, and to spam other types of sites not related to the topic at hand. While all of this is true, it’s not as if people haven’t been able to place fake classifieds for cars for sale and apartments for rent in the newspaper forever and ever. The only difference now is that, depending on which marketplace you’re using, it’s free. Or probably cheaper than it was in the paper. Just sayin’.
