Weird Al ‘Craigslist’ Doors Video

Not one of his better efforts, frankly, but I haven’t seen anything from Weird Al Yankovich in years:

Jack Humphrey jokes, “Craigslist has truly arrived. When Weird Al makes a Doors-inspired melody about your site, there’s really nothing left to do but cash checks and wait for Google to buy.” Indeed. That seems to be the business model for quite a number of sites.

Craig Newmark has had plenty of opportunities to cash out on Craigslist. So far he has passed on all of them.
