The eBay v. Craigslist trial continued on day two with testimony from Skype CEO Josh Silverman.  Silverman began his testimony late Monday, and continued during both the Tuesday morning and afternoon sessions.

Silverman was responsible for the launch of eBay's international classified ad business, including kijiji, which was subsequently launched in the United States. 

Skype previously was a wholly owned subsidiary of eBay, until eBay sold 70% of Skype for approximately $2B in November, 2009.
