eBay Names Shopping.com CEO to Skype CEO position

SkypeeBay today named Josh Silverman the new CEO of Skype. Silverman, currently the CEO of eBay's Shopping.com unit, will take on the job on March 24, replacing Michael van Swaaij, who was appointed interim CEO in October. Andrew Haddad, another eBay executive, will take over the CEO position at comparison shopping site Shopping.com.

Let us hope the new Skype CEO can move Skype beyond simple VoIP calling to the PSTN and peer-to-peer calling. Maybe he can improve Skype's non-existent customer service as well while he's at it.
