Ebay Copies Craigslist

[Luke_Wilbur]

I just received an email today from Ebay. It appears Ebay has started a new company Kijiji. It appears to be a blatent copy of Craigslist. Ebay has 25 percent ownership interest in Craigslist.

It even has a kijiji for every city (Craigslist secret sauce).

 

Here is the email I received:
