Reinventing classifieds

Wednesday, January 14th, 2009

I’m racing to alpha, so things have been a little quiet here on the blog. Sorry ’bout that. I have a few items in the can, but they’re waiting until people can actually see the site.

While working on the site, I came across a post from Steve Outing pointing to the winners from a contest on how to reinvent classifieds in the newspaper world. This was my world a couple of years ago, so it’s very interesting reading.

I’m intrigued by the consignment method. It’s a little like running eBay postings in the paper. I wonder if that would be an interesting upsell for eBay…
