		<description>Thank you very kindly for your opinion, Ryan.  I will take it all into consideration.  Until then, why don't you get a venue for your ranting and open up a blog.  Show us all what kinda tech genius you are.  Feel free to leave the URL here so that we can all make our journey to your tech mecca.  

Thanks for visiting.</description>

		<description>Rather you would have not said anything rgarding Tech..

You should stick to making comments on the News (which will be easy for you since they usually talk about things that have already happened and state the obvious) and stick to making comments on Everyday Life (Which in your case will be extremely boring).

Changing the title on your Blog to "My commentary on News and Everyday Life" would be more up your alley.</description>

		<description>hmmm.... didn't I state in the previous comment that I knew it was an obvious statement?  What would you rather I had said, O Tech Genius Ryan?</description>

		<description>"I can't begin to fathom what exactly it could mean to the industry if this were to ever go through. Of course, Skype would certainly be integrated into Windows. That might be alright for a while. I don't really see much integration with eBay except for the mentioned integration with the Live Search. Added exposure for certain. Could also make for interesting integration of both Skype and Ebay into MSN Spaces. One question that comes to mind is how much is eBay worth. They just paid a bucket load for Skype and that was a minor drop in their total value. This would almost certainly be a deal in the billions."

IF YOU LOOK AT YOUR POST ABOVE YOU WILL SEE THAT ANYONE OTHER THAN YOURSELF IS A TECH GENIUS. YOUR QUESTION THAT COMES TO MIND OF HOW MUCH EBAY IS WORTH? WOW - HOW ABOUT LOOKING AT THE MARKET CAP OF THE COMPANY.....YOUR STATEMENT ABOUT THIS BEING A DEAL IN THE BILLIONS - NO ****.

		<description>Ryan,

Of course it is stating the obvious.  What would have made that a "tech genius" statement to you?  Maybe I should have estimated the exact amount?  You are almost certainly a "tech genius" yourself.</description>
