      Well marketplace basically killed Craig’s list, so that’s one reason.

        This one irks me. I grabbed an Auto-Trader paper today as I was reminiscing about how local trader-papers used to be a thing. I got my NES and Saxophone that way. I still have one of those. -Then craigslist ended that and now that has been replaced by a website that requires membership to read the listings.

      People are on Facebook because that’s where everyone already is. They won’t leave because then they lose contact with all those people.

      ‘People who spend too much time on Facebook’ overlaps with ‘People who need cheap lawyers.’
