Skype and eBay
 

Is this a good merger?

Why or why not?

bad

to much consolidating

ebay buys everything, they bought the nr1 auction site in holland, it was simple and fun and guess what its a ebay look alike now, gettin crappier every day

http://skype.com/company/news/2005/skype_ebay.html They are joining forces incase you didnt know, or didnt get that from the previous post.

Im not really that excited about it, i mean look at what they did to paypal..

they dont care what you think.

I like it.... Will be good for ebayers.

I expect Skype will be integrated into ebay - the "ask a question" system has always been an issue - it removes the spontinaity out of buying online.

Add Skype and you can talk to the vendor live and ask as many questions as you want, in real time.

PayPal was fucked before eBay got hold of it in my opinion

I thought about that, and if they actually include it like that, it will be a great feature.

bad.
ebay fucked up paypal.
they'll do the same with skype...

good for ebay,
not so sure if its good for skype users.
