First Skype was launched as an IM software tool with voice as an added benefit. Within a short time this little software application became popular for making calls over the net.

Skype does not trust on a centralized network to route the calls like other voip providers.

For this reason Skype, different to other Voip providers like Vonage and Lingo, can gain larger without paying out anything extra for technology based on a centralized network, since Skypes network truly is made of thousands of interconnected PCs owned by people like you and me.

The recent acquisition of Skype by the Internet auction leader Ebay for enormously amount of $2.6 billion gives you some idea of the potential of the power of this technology.

What is my advantage when using Skype?

The call quality is of high quality in most countries. You only need a microphone and speakers to call with Skype. Most people think they know all about Skype. They know how to make free calls with a PC or notebook over the net. But Skype is much more than a PC-based IP-Telephony service.

EBay is an online auction website originally founded in 1995 by Pierre Omidyar as part of a larger site he then owned. Later on the site took on a life of its own.

How Bidding Works

EBay offers auction-style, fixed-price, and Dutch-auction listings.

In regular auction-style to seller puts one or more items up for a certain period of days and even establish a reserve price. At first the bid must be the same price or higher as the sellers minimum bid. Until the first bid is made the bid price can be equal to the seller’s price, after that it is raised incrementally.

In fixed-price, allows the seller to place a “buy it now” price, and bidders win the bid only if their bid is equal to the buy it now price. It works similarly to regular auctions, except that the seller fixes a price that must be reached by the winning bidder, and a bidder can bypass it by paying the “buy it now” price upfront.

Dutch-auction allows the seller to offer a lot of identical or nearly identical items and buyers can purchase one of more of them at the bid price. In this auction style each bidder enters their bid price and the amount of items they wish to bid on. This continues until the lot of items limit has been reached. All the winners, however, do pay the same lowest winning bid price. For other bidding rules, types, and details, we encourage you to go check out the help pages on the website.
