Exactly. She took a concept for a business that was expanding on its
own, bought into a lot of losing venture i.e. the cable phone, and then
departed after Ebay's listings were seriously down and the stock took a
huge hit. Sounds like a success story to me. FRANC

Re: [MOPO] Fwd: [MOPO] Meg Whitman -- Founder of EBAY. . .

2008-09-03 Thread Patrick Michael Tupy

Everyone knows it was Thomas Edison invented Ebay.

NOT, Phil!

As he often did, 'Ol Tommy Edison stole the Ebay concept from Nikola  
Tesla's

remarkably flawless Ebay Coil which would eventually be corrupted by
Edison's lesser ideas of Direct Buying as opposed to Tesla's superior  
Alternating

bidding concept.

Eventually, like all that was taken and 'dumbed down' from Tesla, the  
thoughts
of how 'electric'  Tesla's  Ebay could have been would be lamented  
for generations to

come...
