Google payments
Posted at 1:17pm on Monday, February 27th, 2006TechCrunch is rapidly moving up my list of must read sites… Today they have an exclusive on the new Google payments system, a direct shot across ebay’s bows.
Intriguing. Google Base was to me an odd offering; allowing users to take and make payments makes it make a lot more sense, but there’s a lot of ground to be made up if they are to catch ebay. Also interesting that this is not directly about ‘organising the world’s information’, but *is* directly about tackling the biggest c2c market available and digging directly into yet another mega-brand’s territory and revenue stream.
