once upon a time when i lived in sf, i actually walked into the craigslist office, unknowingly, thinking it was a second hand computer store...
craig newmark was like "can i help you?" once i'd gotten fully into the place, and instead of computers for sale, i was witnessing half a dozen people typing away on computers, set up on those long tables you bring to a portable picknick, and realized i was in a makeshift office space and not a retail store.
just to be certain, i asked "so... you don't actually sell any computers or computer parts here, right? i thought i had found "the craigslist store." "
he laughed and said no, this is actually our office.
I said well i love the site, carry on then, have a nice day.
and walked out.
this was in the inner sunset, if i recall, or somewhere along the N Judah Line.
