Craigslist and Public Relations

(1) The thesis that Mr. Robert D. Putnam and Lewis F. Feldstein, is trying to make is that even though Craiglist offers alot of people to make "elevator pitches" and other business deals, sometimes it Craiglist can get a little crazy. Certain situations such as unimportant, unprofessional, personal problems and stunts, as well as making lazy abbrieviations "CL", like what some people might do in Facebook and Myspace at times may reduce the professional view of the Craiglist. They also state that it is hard locally to find a great deal that Craiglist has to offer because even though they offer alot of states there are only certain people in certain areas that might participate in making valid "offerors" to the "offerees" to the public. Another problem is that sometimes the offer might no longer be valid due to the closed deal that the "offeree" made with the "offeror" since many people are Online in this website trying to make a great deal.

(2)I think due to the "Rapid-Growth Stage" that Craig Newmarks' Craigslist has experienced in the history of his website (a few years after 1995) that from its many applicants and employeers that Craigslist it has been a very successful website (even though Craig Newmarks and his staff refused to except a sell out exit strategy from another venture capitalists). Craiglist is a very efficient discourse community business site that can help the temporary unemployeed discouraged workers.
