These excerpts taken from the EBAY 10-K filed Feb 29, 2008. New
Ecommerce Opportunities
We plan on expanding Skype’s presence within our existing
businesses because communication via email — the
traditional way for buyers and sellers to
communicate — can be a source of friction in the
online shopping experience, due primarily to delays in response
time. Skype enables us to create new channels for ecommerce
activity that help to streamline the online shopping experience.
Communication via Skype allows buyers and sellers to benefit
from being able to communicate directly with each other in an
instantaneous and private environment. Skype also offers Skype
Prime, which creates a marketplace for users to share their
knowledge, talent, skills and services with other users.
