Q&A With Christmas Caroloke Creator

February 26, 2007 by Ty Tribble | 0 Comments

I was extremely annoyed by eBay’s (EBAY) Skype acquisition, and the consequent stock price drop that eBAY delivered. Needless to say I am an eBAY shareholder, albeit a rather restless one at the moment.

Now that Skype is inside eBAY, however, I’d really like to see it perform, grow, deliver the grandiose numbers that were projected … Makes me look for strategic options to achieve exactly that!

I found an answer, actually.

Like many other Indians living outside India, I make a lot of calls to my family and friends. Recently, I have started using Skype out, which costs about 15c / minute. I found out, however, that Reliance has a much better deal : 11c / minute. That means that, even in cheap calling, Skype is not the best deal.
