The Week that Was
Friday, November 7th, 2008
A lot can happen in 5 days. Tuesday was as big as they come (regardless of your political viewpoint) and the groundswell of emotion seen around the world as a result of it is pretty incredible.
I also came on the blog, firmly planted a stake in the ground regarding eBay Ink, and then seemingly [...]
Stand Up and Be Counted
Tuesday, November 4th, 2008
Today is an incredibly historic day for the American people. I for one have never been more excited to watch the news than I am right now. Coverage begins at 4pm PT and will go well into the night. Bloggers will be getting blisters and the poor fail whale over on Twitter will have been [...]
eBay Ink for the Next Few Days
Monday, October 6th, 2008
All,
Please be patient over the next few days with Ink’s news reporting and commentary. I became the proud father of a second beautiful, healthy daughter this past weekend.
There will still be stories and posts (as this morning proves evident) on a regular basis over the next two weeks while I spend some quality time [...]
Some Needed Clarification
Monday, September 8th, 2008
Over the weekend, AuctionBytes.com ran a story under the headline: “eBay’s Operation Catalog Flies under the Radar”. It generated a number of responses (at last count 89 comments) and I received a few emails from folks asking about the validity of the post.
Even though I knew the meat of the post was primarily speculative and, [...]
Notes from the Road: Ich bin ein Berliner…
Monday, August 25th, 2008
… Well, for a few days at least. I arrived in Berlin late last night and have just finished my first day here at the German offices of eBay.
Today was a day of meeting and greeting with different folks; putting names to faces, etc. I plan on presenting the eBay Ink overview again tomorrow [...]
Notes from the road: Richmond office - Day 1
Monday, August 18th, 2008
Whenever I travel to England on business I always love the first day of arrival. When I come back for personal reasons, I usually have my family with me so I find myself annoyingly (to my wife; not to me) repeating myself; “oh, I haven’t had this in years…” or “this is where Daddy went [...]

Presentation Alternative
Friday, July 18th, 2008
All,
Last time I used a presentation tool on Ink it slowed a few reader’s computers down. I think we may have found an alternative to avoid that problem but wanted to run it by you first.
.
Please let me know in the comments if this one is posing problems for you or not. Really want [...]
Blog Search
Thursday, June 5th, 2008
All,
I’ve received a few comments and emails regarding the search functionality of Ink. As some of you know, we use WordPress as the platform for eBay Ink and the search tool within WordPress is set up to search Post Title and Post Body. It’s my understanding that the search in its current configuration just [...]
John Donahoe talks to eBay Ink
Friday, April 18th, 2008
Two weeks ago, John and Pierre conducted a live webcast to the entire organization that emphasized a need for open communication and what can only be described as bold steps for the company (I’m working on getting video excerpts of the conversation to share with Ink subscribers soon).
Before they sat down together, I was able [...]
