Bishop c4 to f7. Check!

Can't wait to see how the game unfolds. However, I'm confident the only true winners will be the lawyers.

Just another real life warning to not get into bed with the wrong company. (thinking xobni dodged this with MSFT)

I think its a little different. CL/Ebay was a partnership, Xobni/MSFT was a purchase.

"placed deceptive ads on Google such as blue underlined headlines like Craigslist.org and Craigslist.com"

Sounds like a legitimate complaint. As for the rest, I don't know what there is to steal: besides audience and brand name, what does Craigslist have that eBay can't replicate by building a similar site with a similar price structure?
