As expected earlier this month, ebay buys StumbleUpon for about $75 million.

From Buisnesswire,

This acquisition will provide eBay with in-depth exposure to a fast-growing community-based service with approximately 2.3 million users.

“StumbleUpon is a great fit within our goal of pioneering new communities based on commerce and sustained by trust,” said Michael Buhr, senior director, eBay. “StumbleUpon’s downloadable toolbar provides an engaging and unique experience to its users, but it is the similarities in our approaches to the concept of community that make it such a compelling addition to eBay.”
