So Skype and ebay get together..hmmm.
One sells VoIP and the other is known as an auction house. What do they have in common you ask? Well, ebay sees itself as a provider of space. Skype is a provider of communication over space. Space is the final frontier.
What’s the link? Skype on Thursday also released a new suite of services called the Skype Voice Services Program, which includes some features that could be attractive to online auctioneer eBay. The Skype program calls for opening its VoIP universe to content providers to develop applications of interest to the firm’s 53 million users.
Amazing how a small group of visionaries created such value for their stakeholders in such a small time. The moral of the story..go build value and they will come. Value is sometimes about price but its often about what the service does to make your life better. I’ve been using skype for months now and not only have we cut out phone bills but we communicate faster too.
