Finally, eBay jumps into Social Networking
October 10th, 2007 | More Posts: Internet Marketing, Brand Building, Social Media |With the superficial success of Facebook, MySpace, Orkut and several other social media sites, eBay - the e-commerce company launched their own Social Networking hub called Neighborhoods. It’s a meeting place for buyers, sellers or just a visitor to peek into the discussion and learn something there. They already had a buyer/seller section which, to an extent, did the same. However, these neighborhoods are not welcomed by all. The typical concern is that the spammers and scammers can take the control of these neighborhoods.

hi,
Good for ebay!!!! Excellent for interested marketers as well as the basic consumer. I find that social networking helps people to engage about products and ideas. If I want to know the truth on a product, finding a social network is the first thing I do before I make the purchase!!!
