- ghshephard 14y agoHousing Maps doesn't have any intention of replacing CL. CL is required for Housing Maps to exist. Padmapper was very clear in its intent to eliminate craigslist eventually, even if they made no explicit statements stating that was their goal. Anybody with even the slightest modicum of business development experience could explain what the eventual trajectory would be for these two organizations. HousingMaps has zero desire to be anything other than a Google Maps interface to craigslist. That's it. Nothing more. The instant they start moving out of that space (going commercial, accepting rental submissions, etc...) - they'll get shut down and/or hit with a C&D just like padmapper.
