Why Did the Skype eBay Marriage Fail?

PC World called me while I'm busy covering all the VoIP news happening at ITEXPO. I took PC World's Jeff Bertolucci call and he interviewed me about the failed Skype eBay marriage. He then quoted my thoughts on eBay selling off Skype and why it failed. The story was also carried on InfoWorld, which is one of my favorite tech magazines of all time!

The article was also posted on NetworkWorld, another one of my favorites. Nice to be quoted by three esteemed technology publications. Fellow VoIP blogger Andy Abramson was also quoted.
