Why Fark, Drudge and Huffington when you can Buzz!?Pierre Omidyar, the one-and-only founder of eBay, didn’t much appreciate John McCain’s tip of the hat in last night’s debate to Meg Whitman, eBay’s former CEO. “Meg Whitman was CEO of a company which started with 12 people,” McCain said, which rather riled Omidyar. Omidyar started the company by himself in September 1995; Whitman joined in March 1998, when the company already had 30 employees. - from Valleywag
