ebay can do better.... (Score 1)

If ebay focused more of their attention on becoming an open platform that people can flexibly use for barter and exchange - and if they opened up paypal peppercoin style or something - then they would be working in the right direction. Right now they seem a bit closed off to me, not to mention making random acquisitions like skype which make them look like that media company which aquired aol, and that, in the end, is going to lose them revenue.
