One plug-in, known as Cooqy, enables ebay sellers to display their auction listings on various social networking sites, including MySpace.com pages. The nature of social networking makes it a perfect place to find like-minded buyers and sellers, noted Cooqy founder Robert Yeager.

" ebay sellers are already there on MySpace and the other sites," Yeager explained. "They are part of those networks, connecting on those same ideas and interests, but they didn't have enabling technology to let them show off their inventory and help snag shoppers."

For instance, a rare coin dealer can use Cooqy to integrate his ebay listings into his MySpace page, or onto a blog that he publishes on the topic, Yeager said. Likewise, the technology can provide value for buyers, who can use the plug-in to refine searches and help them hone in on items of interest to them.

Hmmmm... pretty cool, but I could give you a snippet of code that would display your listings (or any specific listings for that matter) on your site also. I can even color coordinate it to fit right in.



Rest in Peace

Maybe it's because I'm a crotchety rickedy old man and not particularly into social networking, but I'm not certain I'd want my listings known on YouTube or MySpace. From what I've read, these mostly cater to younger people whose interest (and budget) for rare coins might be minimal... unless there's a special section on coin collecting. I think I'd rather have my coins advertised on a dating service for millionaires where there's two ways to strike it rich.

I would not want my auctions displayed on any place than the auction site. I would have chosen that particular site because I would have felt that would do the best job for me. Although Fred's idea of striking it rich two times would be just fine.
