I'm sure old news to most of you, but Skype was just sold by EBay. Even though I knew it had been bought by EBay a few years ago, the news article still made me think, "wait, Skype was owned by EBay?!"

I never truly understood the synergistic benefit of VOIP married to on-line auctions. At a $2.75B sale after a $3.1B purchase, perhaps nobody else did, either...

Oh well. I still have it loaded on my cellphone for when I travel overseas...
