established sites with good content go out of business day in and day out... that happens when they don't have a good functional design and when better options come along. If they are the only game in town, then I will put up with bad functional design and if needed crawl on my knees to solve a problem of mine. I remember years back trawling through multiple expertsexchange pages to solve some coding issues.. Now I don't as better options have come along... Why is the same not happening with craigslist, cause they do the basic job well.. have a functional designed site which solves peoples problem easily.
