The web is going more open and social as we all know and we love it aren't we?!  because we are connected,up to date. we can interact with others , share stuff and many more things we do on social networks . But  classifieds and auctions  has alwyas been local!!! should it catch up with the rest of the web and go social too? will it add value to buyers and sellers? is it the right time for a social marketplace ? I mean it's 2009 !! Have your say, What do you think?
Craigslist? That is a marketplace and it is as local as you need it to be. - Vincent E. Epps
I totally agree with you. I think that Craigslist and eBay has taken that first step to connect people from other parts of the world. Now it just needs to take it a notch. - Elaine Lee
Then there will need be a new definition of local. - Vincent E. Epps
Nobody is talking about replacing Craigslist or ebay.there are so many sellers from Craigslist and ebay promoting their products to people on facebook,twitter and other social networks. i mean they're not doing it just for fun ! and there are so many people they'd rather buy or sell somthing from or via someone they know. and no there s no need for new definition of 'local' i think Socializing a local marketplace (social marketplace) would be a better solution for both buyers and sellers - Nas
