Craiglist's founder loves Cohen

Post by jarkko »

As the Craig in Craigslist, the free on line noticeboard that changed everything, Craig Newmark can surely get his hands on just about anything. His new home in Greenwich Village, New York, contains everything from an ancient Roman mosaic to 18th-century British portraits to Simpsons figurines to artworks by his beloved Leonard Cohen

This was a very interesting article. I only wish (of course) that more had been written about Craig's love of Leonard, and what pieces of Leonard's work he owns. I love his dry wit. He seems like a seriously good and nice guy.
