The first postings debuted in early 1995. Soon word-of-mouth led to rapid growth. There was no moderation, so Craig was a bit surprised when people started using the mailing list for non-event postings. By early 1998 Craig still thought his career was as a software engineer ("hardcore java programmer").  In fall 1998 the name "List Foundation" was introduced and Craigslist started transitioning to the use of this name. In January 2000, current CEO Jim Buckmaster joined the company as lead programmer. In July 2005, Craigslist won the right to beam over 2 million classified ads into. Some terms :

• You are bound by Terms of Use, and any additional terms that craigslist may devise, as soon as you use it. (1)
• They may also change the conditions any time and they come immediately come into effect. So even if you had used the service only half an hour ago, do check the terms whenever you visit their site. (1 & 2)
• If you have any problem with them, then "your only recourse is to immediately discontinue use of craigslist." (1)
• "Your postings, messages, text, files, images, photos, video, sounds, or other materials ("Content")" are your "sole responsibility". (3)
