This is a news shocker for me. I cant believe that giant wants to buy eBay. A giant eating out a giant. What is the world coming to ? Soon we might even see Ultraman coming out from the sky and helping Superman kill monsters.

“The NY Post is reporting that Microsoft and Ebay are in talks for the online auction house to join the Microsoft family.” That said, the talks aren’t going that well at the moment. From the article: ” Sources indicate that the talks, while still active, have cooled somewhat in the last two weeks as executives considered antitrust issues. It is unclear what the full impact of yesterday’s advertising and search alliance between Yahoo! and eBay will be for talks between MSN and eBay. One source close to the matter suggested the Yahoo-eBay tie-up would not stop Microsoft from pursuing the online auctioneer.”
