eBay Reviews Beta - Where’s Epinions?

by comparisonengines, on October 10th, 2005

eBay recently launched Reviews and Guides and as usual, the eBay community jumped at the opportunity to contribute. I hate to see companies re-create the wheel, so I hope that eBay integrates Epinions into its Reviews, but with the amount of traffic that eBay gets and it’s extremely active community, I have a feeling that this might not be that necessary.

The eBay Reviews Beta looks like its already packed with helpful review information, but I think it would make sense to integrate Epinions… At least at some point. I also hope that eBay is planning to offer the reviews in their web service API, much like Amazon does, to allow developers to utilize that rich content.
