Been playing with Google Base Google has started a service called Google Base that allows you to share your online stuff and just "stuff in general" with other people. From my first look at it I think its probably purposed to compete with Craig's list in offering up a way for everyone to find something about anything. Its pretty neat as you can fill out a profile of sorts on any given concept and give it attributes. This includes webpages, recipes, people, rentals, jobs, places and the list goes on forever. So I filled out a google base item for my Jambalaya Recipe and another item for myself and my website JerryOdom.com.

Very neat stuff as I never used Craig's list. Craigs list looks alot like a messageboard to me where as there is more structure to this thing. I remember recent news about Craig's list taking issue with people listing their pages and I think this included Google's spidering of it.(can't find the article.) Google must've decided its time to take on this sort of project and it'll be interesting how things go once(if) it goes out of Beta.  ¶ 3:32 PM
