Greg calls out Craig on twitter

Craigslist rival uses Twitter to expose dangers of CL’s red-light district:

This is a great article about how Geebo.com CEO Greg Collier is using twitter to call out craigslist founder Craig Newmark to clean up craigslist’s act.

Anyone else might take this opportunity to promote their own site as being safer, more reputable, more controlled, perhaps. But none of Collier’s tweets make any mention of his site – geebo.com. He insists that he’s not doing this to promote his own site, nor is he being obsessive about craig-bashing. But there’s bad stuff happening on the site – from prostitution to housing scams – and that needs to stop, he said. When the news stories appear – and that seems to be happening more frequently now – he feels the need to point them out.

If you want to follow Greg on twitter he’s @gregcollier.

Again in the interest of transparency I have no stake in Geebo.com. I just believe in Geebo as a craigslist alternative.
