eBay Adding Blogs & Wiki
eBay is beefing up community-building capabilities on its online auction site to include support for blogs, a new Wiki for members to share information, and new types of alerts for users to stay on top of sales, the company announced on Wednesday.
The eBay Wiki will let anyone post and edit articles on topics of interest to eBay users. The site looks a lot like a blog, including the capability for visitors to post comments about articles. But unlike a blog, anyone can alter the content of existing posts.
Visitors can browse headlines based on categories including eBay policies, seller tools, and specialty sites. Many of the articles posted on the site so far are how-to type articles that might help users learn about how eBay works. JotSpot, a Wiki technology and hosting company, powers the eBay Wiki.
