You Never Know Who's Reading: Craig from craigslist Responds to My Post

The power of social networking:

Yesterday I posted about emergence, craigslist, and Obama. I tweeted my post to the world on Twitter. Wouldn't ya know it but Craig Newmark (the Craig Newmark of craigslist fame) was paying attention to his Twitter feed, found the post, read it, linked to it and recommended it.

Check out Craig's blog -- his blog, not his list -- for more of his thoughts on ways that the bottom-up culture of this new society will transform the citizen's relationship with government.

p.s. I wonder if Craig's dog is named "Craigsdog," or if he calls him car "Craigscar" etc. For most people I guess that joke would run out of steam, but I think he could get away with it.
