Newmark: The other people on my team do, yes. Since I’ve had such bad luck
in interviewing—that’s because I’m not suited to it—I have no role in the hiring
whatsoever.
Livingston: Is there anything about craigslist that people misunderstand?
Newmark: People sometimes still think we’re a nonprofit, even though we tell
people that we’re not. Sometimes people think that we sold part to eBay, and
that’s a misconception I have to fix now and then.
Livingston: eBay is letting you do your thing, right?
Newmark: Yes.
Livingston: What advice would you give to someone thinking about starting a
startup?
Newmark: Trust your instincts and your moral compass. I’ve used that phrase
too much in this conversation. The deal is: we’re not pious about this. We try
hard not to be sanctimonious. This is the way people really live; we just don’t
talk about it. I’d prefer to be cynical and not talk about it, and yet, that’s real life.
