eBay/Skype - My perspective was picked up by Reuters, NY Times and Noticed by the Blogshere:

Yesterday morning, after hearing about the eBay/Skype deal, and after taking the time to think about what it all meant, I discussed my observations with a few people at my office. This lead to issuing a media advisory that included my comments on eBay’s purchase of Skype. A few minutes later I posted a blog entry which was an update to my initial reaction that I posted right after I first learned about the deal.

As things worked out, I am quite appreciative that both Reuters and the New York Times included a quote from me in their respective stories that ended up running in at least 40+ newspapers and was on seen an equal number of websites around the world during the past 24 hours.

In addition, I was taken back by the number of people from the blogshere who citied one of my eBay/Skype blog postings in their own respective analysis.

Some of the blogs include:

Alec Saunders - (includes a great summary of comments around the Blogshere.)
Andy Abramson
Paul Kapustka
Mark Evans
Business & Technology Reinvention
Future Work::Technology Deprecated
Blog.Dan York.com
Digital Economy
The World 2 Come
Perceptric Forum
Rain City Real Estate Guide
Good Morning Silicon Valley

The eBay/Skype buzz in the blogsphere did not go unnoticed. C|Net News posted a summary of their own yesterday.

Now that the eBay/Skype deal has happened, I wonder who will be next…
