Webinar today. A brief note that I'm hosting an open webinar today at 2pm ET - “Annual e-commerce review…” We'll be going over some 09 results and insights, looking at 2010 and beyond and giving retailers of all sizes some strategies for search, comparison shopping, marketplaces (eBay, Amazon, etc.), social and mobile!
We'll also be disclosing the January ChannelAdvisor Same Store Sales to get an early read on what 2010 will look like for e-commerce.
I hope you are able to join, you can sign up here:

What eBay’s Q4 means for sellers and hints on coming announcements.
There has been copious amount of ink around eBay's Q4 targeted towards investors, but sellers are scratching their heads wondering what it means.
Webinar next Tuesday (1/19) around the Y! Shopping / Y! Store/Pricegrabber controversy
This is slightly off topic for all the eBay readers, but I know we have some Yahoo! store and Yahoo Shopping folks that read the blog so I wanted to let them know about a webinar we are doing next week.
Background
One of the biggest benefits of a Y! store is the ease of use and some discounts to get into Y! Shopping (their Comparison Shopping Engine - CSE).
Survey - eBay not making much progress with consumers, but shoppers are going to buy more in 2010.
Piper Jaffray's Gene Munster is out today with a survey that has some bad news for eBay, but good news for Amazon (as covered over on Amazon Strategies) and good news for e-commerce.
eBay slipped from 26% to 13% when asked ' Which site has the best e-commerce shopping experience' - its lowest since the survey was started.
