- Missed_connection abstract "A missed connection is a type of personal advertisement which arises after two people meet but are too shy or otherwise unable to exchange contact details. The Missed Connections section of Craigslist gets thousands of ads of this type every month for cities such as New York and San Francisco.The feature was started by Jim Buckmaster, Craigslist's CEO, after he noticed a common type of posting in their personal ads, which he characterised as \"you-smiled-at-me-on-the-subway-platform\". He sees the format as addressing a common human need and being ideal for romantic comedy, \"Missed Connections give people that second chance ... They represent persistence in the face of long odds, which definitely adds to their artistic appeal.\" A variety of such artistic works have been developed including illustrations, movies, plays, poetry and songs.Other major cities have similar columns in Craigslist and their own local media. For example, London's Metro newspaper has a \"Rush-hour Crush\" column for commuters who exchange glances but nothing more. Many connections are re-established and couples have become married in this way, such as \"tall rugby player\" and \"beautiful lady in the red dress with long brown curly hair\". Various websites like Gumtree, ISawYou and Qwaro also offer the possibility of finding a missed connection.".
