eBay has named Josh Silverman CEO of Skype and Andre Haddad CEO of Shopping.com. Silverman is currently CEO of Shopping.com and will join Skype on March 24, 2008, reporting directly to John Donahoe, President and CEO-elect of eBay Inc. Prior to joining Shopping.com, Silverman held a variety of leadership roles at eBay, including General Manager for Marktplaats.nl and helped build eBay's classifieds businesses in Europe. Before joining eBay in 2003, he was co-founder and CEO of Evite, the leading social event planning web site. Michael van Swaaij, who was appointed interim CEO in October 2007, will stay actively involved with Skype.

Andre Haddad will succeed Silverman as Shopping.com CEO. Haddad joined eBay in 2001 when it acquired iBazar, a leading European online marketplace he co-founded and successfully ran in Paris. Most recently, Haddad served as Senior Vice President of Product at eBay.
