eBay Looking for Allies Against Google

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the man-the-gates-bring-around-the-cannon dept.

Vitaly Friedman writes "A report in the Wall Street Journal today talks about how eBay is looking for partners to defend against the growing threat of Google. Specifically, Google Base and the payment system in the works in Mountain View are seen as possible dangers to eBay's auctions and PayPal payment operations, says the report. Google Talk just throws some salt in the wounds by looking for a toehold in Skype's turf."

    Yes, if he truly was a visionary ;)
