    Default CraigsList called non-profit, is it really?

    Craigslist calls itself a non-profit website. Is it?

    This is a picture of how much CraigsList earns:

    2003 - us $ 7 million
    2007 - us $ 55 million
    2008 - us $ 81 million

    CraigsList has 25 employees. Considering all of them have to get paid, does all that money required to pay the employees? Apparently it seems to come down to the point "we are non-profit, but we really are not".

    Craigslist actually calling them self a non-profit website is a joke in it self

    Ebay Is no fool, their main objective Is to acquire as many Classified Ad Forums as they can which will allow them to further monopolize such market on the net

    I was reading an article few days ago. That explained how ebay is finding ways to beat CraigsList to be number one. With the huge number of eBay users I think its just matter of time.

    BTW It's Only Matter Of Time Before eBay Actually Figures Out A Way Too Completely Turn All Of Their Non Paying Craigslist Advertisers Into Becoming New Revenue
