  I know!

  How about real live auctioneers counting down the last few minutes of bid stuffing!

  Who would buy Skype?

  If they sold Skype, who would buy it? The write down on its purchase price was precisely because it's been so lousy at making money. Who would be able to do a better job?

  Then Again, eBay Claims It's Still Hunting

  Ebay stole $30 from me in unauthorized billing and as of today has refused to pay me. A company that will pay billions of dollars for a skimpy software that any dimwit can create in a week for $5,000 tells me all that I need to know. It is very baffling to me that this company is still in business????

  precisely. however just because ebay failed to generate cash from the asset does not mean that some other company will not be able to.
  
  question is who will be able to monetize this. GOOG?

  I hope google buys it. They will be able to do more... Since they do more. Obvious enough eh?
