And I'm sure something like craigs will start up soon over here. We don’t have craigslist in the UK or something similar but a lot of local papers are closing down.

But I see no evidence in the post-1993 trend data to suggest Craigslist has had anything to do with classified ad "decline." In fact, though 2007 in dollar volume, there was no decline at all, even when adjusted for inflation -- just a cutback in job advertising after 2000 that is easily explained by demographic and economic trends. My detailed analysis is in the upcoming issue of Columbia Journalism Review. Craigslist killed pennysavers, though. Steve, I know you spend more time with classified ad business than I do.
