Craiglists watch out Google is coming

toolsGoogle is getting ready to provide classified ads. Here's a screen grab. The story is from Editor&Publisher website via AP and notes that "Google also has confirmed it's working on an online payment service, but CEO Eric Schmidt has said the service won't compete with eBay-owned PayPal." I was just discussing the need for new payment schemes to be developed to help reporters and news organizations who produce valuable content, but haven't figured out how to get paid for it.
