EBay Gambles on Google Partnership for Success of Skype, the Internet Phone Service - New York Times

 The rest of the story -- Skype is apparently at the center of the eBay/Google co-opetition shift.

A critical aspect of the deal announced yesterday is that Google will introduce a feature that allows users to talk to advertisers by way of Skype, instead of just clicking through to the advertisers’ Web sites. Users of this feature, called click-to-call, would also have the option of using Google’s own Google Talk system or standard telephones.
