Craig Newmark, the founder of Craigslist, the multi-millionaire guy that we should all thank for his brilliant idea of putting up Craigslist is actually traveling around San Francisco on Muni.
Just last Wednesday, Craig Newmark was spotted with his goatee and a beret at the downtown area’s San Francisco Embarcadero Station. This multi-millionaire guy who can afford the most expensive car to brag around with is actually using a smart card as he move around San Francisco. Craig Newmark seems to go unrecognized as he rides the Muni together with all the commuters there.
Newmark said that he usually take the Muni on his way to the small office of Craigslist in the neighborhood of Inner Sunset. He lives in Cole Valley so it’s a practical choice.
It’s a fun find indeed. How would you feel if you are riding the Muni and Craig Newmark is sitting right beside you? As popular as Craig Newmark is on the web, his face is not that well exposed to the world that most often he doesn’t get recognized. Who would possibly think that Craig Newmark is riding a transit anyway?
His website is built and loved for its simplicity and his lifestyle seems to be as simple as his website as well. He is simple and practical just like Craigslist.
