Yes, I did not like the way they were doing things. No, I don't think leaving it up to CL is the solution. I had a guy once screaming very badly at me for being 10 min late, this kind of people cannot be spotted easily, you need some kind of review system.
Also, regular travelers can't organize well on CL. What's, say, 10-15 dollars a year to get a decent platform? Yet, I know, nobody wants to pay for that, chicken and egg, etc., but the market is there, of course it's there, people are moving all the time...
- frogpelt 13y agoDid you give the screaming guy a ride anyway?
- bsirkia 13y agoCL Rideshare is funny because like you say, it works for 18-50 year old males that are willing to research the "few simple rules" perfectly fine, so about half a million people. There's no way that half a million people, out of 330 million Americans, is the full market of people that would be willing to do a rideshare. I think there's a case to be made that Craigslist is keeping that number from growing by not improving the level of trust they add, and have made it difficult for others to innovate in the space by (justifiably or not) keeping it a walled garden.
