As most of you know I’ve been battling a rather nasty stomach bug for over a month now. It has disrupted my schedule and seen me in and out of the eBay office vs doctor’s office for the past 4 weeks. Yesterday was unfortunately no exception. On a day when PayPal held a Platform Preview and became the first and only global payments platform open to third-party developers and a day in which John Donahoe joined Fortune’s editor at large, Adam Lashinsky, on stage at FORTUNE Brainstorm: TECH 2009 down in Pasadena, I found myself stuck getting yet more tests and sadly had to miss both.

eBay Developers Conference 2009: A Recap
I was only able to attend the first day of the eBay / PayPal Developers Conference this year but the coverage coming out of the event has been so consistent and thorough, I felt that I was able to get enough information to feel like I didn’t miss a thing.Bottom line, the whole team over there – Delyn, Max, Adam, Laura, Kumar (I could go on) – put on another fantastic agenda and the feedback from those in attendance that I talked to was overwhelmingly positive.

eBay Developers Conference Schedule & Presentations
As some of you already know, I will be attending the eBay & PayPal Developers Conference starting tomorrow morning at 9am PT. In addition to the keynotes, there are multiple presentations happening simultaneously throughout the day. Given the conflicts, I thought I’d let you know what the schedule looks like and which presentations I have chosen to cover for you (bolded). If folks strongly disagree with my choices I can switch, but I felt that the selections I’ve made will get you the most comprehensive breakdown of the 48 hour event if you’re not able to attend.

UPDATED: Changes to eBay Marketplace to include Smart FAQs and New Resolution Process
In an article I ran here on Ink back in February, Dinesh Lathi, VP of eBay Seller Experience, explained that eBay was moving to a twice yearly product release cycle when it came to changes in the marketplace. Additionally, he said that the announcements would be made at least 60 days in advance of changes in order to provide sellers and developers enough time to adjust and minimize disruption.Previewed last night on the AuctionBytes blog and confirmed by eBay this morning, today marks the first of the two announcements of this year. This one includes the introduction of new buyer incentives, Smart FAQs, and a new resolution process: (More …)
