MySpace has been talking to eBay for several months about ways they could partner on what MySpace calls “peer commerce,” according to people familiar with the matter. The idea is to let MySpace users buy and sell items from each other using eBay’s online-commerce technology and its PayPal payment system, these people said. MySpace users would be able to post items for sale on their profiles, and their eBay auctions would be automatically updated, according to one person close to the discussions…Google isn’t likely to favor any deal that promotes eBay services that compete with its own. In the past 18 months Google has been increasingly encroaching on eBay’s territory. Google has added a listings service called Base where sellers can post products for sale and an online payment service called Checkout that competes with eBay’s PayPal.

It's like the guy who spends 100 hours researching an $800 HDTV before buying it and then goes out and signs a million dollar condo purchase contract without reading and negotiating it. And, I agree that they are probably trying to spoon feed some more happy food to the public. For example “certain provisions of the agreement may have been negotiated too hastily” translates to “major f-up!” Probably one or both of the parties had some loudmouths charging into things without thinking about the nuances and what-ifs. And that “performing at or above expectations” translates to this bugger is way out of whack and now someone is or should get fired over it.

Well I hate to say it but too bad. Yahoo and MSN aren't exactly breathing down Google's neck in terms of searches or advertising. Of course MySpace is going with Google, they are the best and going with Yahoo or MSN wouldn't be worth their time to even sit down at the table to negotiate a deal. For large sites, it's Google or nothing. “I do not want an Internet ruled by one search engine.”
