While we’re on the subject of Craigslist founder Craig Newmark and social media I thought it would be a good idea to follow Craig on Twitter. I thought it would provide me with some good blog fodder. Well, it turns out I’m not welcome to follow Craig on Twitter. He’s blocked my @trenchreynolds account.

Check it out.

On the rare occasion that I do interviews with the media about craigslist I am always asked if craigslist knows about this blog. Now I can answer with a resounding yes.

I was able to follow Jim Buckmaster. I wonder how long it will take for me to be blocked from that account as well.

Blocked or not as long as their tweets are public I’ll be able to follow them on Twitter.
