TechCrunch reports EBay Sees $1 Billion Knocked Off Market Cap As Skype Outages Continue today (August 16th, 2007).
"….The Skype outage is now approaching 18 hours (at the time of writing) with little information coming from Skype other than that the issue is related to “sign-on problems.” Skype earlier in the day was forced to deny rumors
that their platform had either been hacked or subject to a cyber attack."
It does seem unusual - I've been seeing Skype coming up and down all day but it's not been usable for more than a couple of minutes.
