I figure this would go here since Google is doing everything nowadays, and to let people know about it.

News Article
Source: BBC

Its pretty interesting that Google will be competting with Ebay, I wonder if this will become a huge thing.

Any comments?

I read in my local paper that Ebay is ending partnership with Paypal... So how is Google competing with Ebay? Unless Google is doing Auctions as well?

I love paypal. It's easy and convenient and usually the people who complain have had thier accounts frozen because they were involved in something shady in the first place.

I use PayPal off of ebay a good bit too. We use it for trades a lot over at TFans and I use it to pay vendors at Bricklink. I've never EVER had a problem with it.

It'll still be there, sure, but maybe not as good w/o eBay backing it up. And of course we'd lose the ability to be able to use it for ebay invoices or to pay directly for auctions by clicking a single link.

Given how PayPal is *owned* by eBay... I don't think that's likely to happen.

Ok. That's what I was thinking. Either way, I figured I needed to point out that PayPal is a very very good thing.

I know that you're trying to be funny, but google is growing at a fast speed. I just hope they won't grow too big and then try to have a monopoly. Becuse monopolies are bad. Then, they're biggest threat to Microsoft becuse of this. xD

um...last I checked, Apple's computer business still exists, Netscape's core still lives (Mozilla/lololol), and Linux is the choice in many software companies...

anyways, smart move by Google to diversify and try to shift focus that it is more than just a search company

What's next, is Google going to try to establish it's own country and government, or are they going to go the convential route and try for world domination. It will be interesting to see what twists and turns Google continues to take.
