My greatest concern about eBay is its much slower growth rate.

I don't see management coming up with creative ways to spur growth.

On the other hand, eBay is probably the best example of a true mass-market Internet phenomenon and it is clearly a crown jewel - a company that AOL or Microsoft or Yahoo ought to try to get.

What I would really like to see is the Amazon people running eBay - Amazon is incredibly innovative, and Jeff Bezos would, in my opinion, do a much better job of monetizing eBay that Meg Whitman is doing.
