I'm not sure what eBay was planning on doing with StumbleUpon in the first place. Same with Skype - it's been three years seemingly without any real integration of the services.
I recall talk about a grand vision of users calling one-another to negotiate deals and terms, but it looks like eBay has never really pulled the trigger. Perhaps they're trying to stay in a league with Google and Amazon, who have shown significant versatility in their service offerings - but eBay has definitely fallen flat if that was their intention.
I wouldn't be surprised to see eBay spin off Skype eventually too in favor of a leaner organization.
