eBay Blogs used to be my favorite pastime when i was selling on eBay. I like chatting and making new friends there.

An eBay blog provides eBay members with personal blogs. You can create your eBay blog and discuss your favorite topics, products, eBay stores, and more.

But Ebay decided to take down this and after October 31, 2009, blog pages will no longer be available on the web.

Reasons?

Well, seems like the overall usage and page views have not reached high enough levels to justify ongoing operational and maintenance expenses. so, closing down eBay Blogs will allow more focus on resources related to the core marketplace, explained Russ in the General Announcement.

If you have created an eBay Blog, you are advised to print out or save your blog entries before they close this section of the site.
