I am not a big fan of Skype and haven\u2019t been one for a long time<\/a>. On the flip side, I have always liked Microsoft products for some reason. I just hope Microsoft can straighten Skype out or if they can\u2019t, put them out of their misery. <\/p>\n

The whole eBay\/Skype thing didn\u2019t make much sense to me. I know they thought that it would help buyer\/seller communication but who really wants that? The best part about eBay was that you didn\u2019t have to waste time talking with other people. You just clicked a bunch of times and a few days later you got your stuff in the mail. <\/p>\n

The only time you should ever want to talk to someone is when you had a problem and needed to contact Tech Support, but since eBay always tried to stay above little things like buyer\/seller disputes, it seemed odd that they would want to get involved, even in such a peripheral way.<\/p>\n

I hope Microsoft gets their money\u2019s worth. Part of me doubts it, but I wouldn\u2019t be broken hearted if I was proven wrong.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
