Recent news indicates that Pierre Omidyar, founder and chairman of eBay, intends to invest in "participatory media" platforms purportedly to shift power and give greater voice to "the masses." Well, I intend to use this particular "participatory media" forum to ask Pierre Omidyar if eBay's acquisition of StubHub has been honestly paid for. In particular, because of Frank Biondi's involvement in both StubHub.com and in Yack.com, and similarities in aspects of both sites, I am concerned that applications may have "migrated" from Yack.com to StubHub.com without regards for a legal settlement agreement entitling me to compensation in the event of such a transfer. Pierre, would you kindly take a serious look into this matter and assure me that everything is on the "up and up"?
