Skype Usage: Incremental or Substitutional? (EBAY)

I wonder about the future for Skype. I am able to use one IM client such as Adium or Trillian for all IM services other than Skype.

Currently Skype still has the name, but how long will it be until being proprietary means problems for Skype? Most IM clients have audio and video now, so unless Skype opens up and plays nice.....

Internet Stocks News/Analysis In Brief (EBAY, GOOG, YHOO)

I think that ICANN needs to serious look into how they will lease off the single letter domains. They are worth too much to allow someone with a script to suck them all up.

Auction them on eBay :)

Google Base Goes Live: Reactions (GOOG, EBAY, MNST)

What strikes me about Google Base is visable on the home page. Compare base.google.com to craigslist. One feels like a community, the other feels like a machine :)
