Craig and 'George'

Craig Newmark, founder of the craigslist.org empire of community bulletin board Web sites around the globe, and actor Jason Alexander, who played "George Costanza" in TV's "Seinfeld" sit-com, are pictured together in a photo at Newmark's blog -- which appears to prove that the two are actually different people.
Newmark jokingly said, during a session at Inman's Real Estate Connect NYC conference in January, that a key to Craigslist's success was perhaps his own "George Costanza-like magnetism."
Newmark (the black and white mug shot at left) and Alexander (posing in the chair) appeared together to promote OneVoiceMovement.org, an international movement seeking peaceful resolution to conflict among Israelis and Palestinians.
