Google & Ebay Team-up

It looks like Google will have an exclusive deal to sell text ads on eBay at the same time allowing buyers to call an online merchant by clicking a text link.

The arrangement announced Monday promises to introduce "click-to-call" Web site technology to a broader audience and potentially speed its adoption as a means to more quickly connect online consumers with advertisers. It allows potential buyers to call up sellers by clicking a link in a Web page.
