‘Tis The Season…
Tuesday, November 18th, 2008
Times are tough for everyone at the moment. As a result, my mother has instituted a one-gift per person rule at Christmas this year for everyone in the family (both Brewer and Hay) with a price limit. So please don’t think me presumptuous for writing a post about charity heading into the season of giving [...]
eBay Top Seller Webinar: Focusing On Success
Monday, November 17th, 2008
As most of you know, I was busy between both San Jose campuses last Thursday attending Professor Yunus’ speech and meeting million feedback achiever, Jack Sheng. As a result, I was unable to participate in the eBay Top Seller Webinar that also took place on Thursday. I managed to get the archived version of the [...]

As of today, the green shooting star above will only look familiar to a few individuals around the world… it represents a Feedback score of 500,000.

PayPal Experiences Link Bug… and Blogs about it.
Tuesday, November 11th, 2008
Scott Guilfoyle, PayPal’s senior vice president of platform services, is reporting a pretty significant but seemingly easily fixable bug on the PayPal blog this afternoon.

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 [...]
Introducing Rich LaMagna - eBay Online Safety Advisor
Thursday, October 30th, 2008
I wanted to take a moment on Ink to introduce you to another member of the eBay team. Rich LaMagna is eBay’s Online Safety Advisor and I managed to spend a few minutes with him earlier this week to talk about what he hopes to accomplish here.
Rich has an interesting role for the [...]
Introducing eBay In Demand
Wednesday, October 29th, 2008
Another demo I received at the eBay Innovation Demo Expo last week was eBay In Demand. The difference between eBay In Demand and a number of the other demos I viewed is that this one is now live on the site - albeit in limited Beta.

I attended my second eBay Innovation Demo Expo earlier this week. The event allows employees to share their innovative ideas for the future of eBay and commerce by building prototype applications and showing them off to their peers and eBay executives. This was the 4th semi-annual eBay Innovation Demo Expo and it was great [...]
