However, if you're connecting from home on two PCs, you probably don't have to go through this process twice (or on each PC) because eBay will likely pull the public IP address from your ISP and not care at all about your private one. Nothing new here - banks do it.

June 24, 2008 | 03:06PM PST/PT Renee VonBergen Hi everyone. It's Renee VonBergen from the My eBay team. Since we launched the beta version of My eBay last summer, we've gathered a lot of feedback which has been incorporated into the beta version. Based on what you've told us, here are a couple of the newest features we've included in this latest beta version of My eBay:Columns so you can quickly scan for information, as well as the traditional sections available in the current version of My eBay--Watching, Bidding, Active Selling, and so on. The ability to organize your items the way YOU want to--put items into lists that you create, such as "Items to Research," "My Wish List," or "Possible Gifts for Joe's Birthday." (More details are available on this thread on the My eBay discussion board.)A new testWe're ready for a new round of testing, as we prepare for the expansion of the new My eBay to the whole Community sometime later this year. In the next few days, a group of members who have not yet used the beta will be randomly selected to be in the test. The easiest way to tell if you've been opted into our test is that My eBay will appear primarily yellow, while the "classic" My eBay is primarily blue.Two different test groups will have slightly different experiences: one group will be able to opt out of the test, and one group will not. Why no opt out? Because it's important that we be able to measure the effectiveness of our changes through the total clicks and activity our test group makes. No single member is singled out, but together your numbers will be compared with the aggregate numbers in the control group. You can learn more about the test by checking out my new thread on the My eBay discussion forum. Send us Feedback!Anyone who is placed in the test this week, or who is already using the beta version, can send us feedback at any time through the Send Comments link near the top of any My eBay beta page. You should also check out the beta thread on the My eBay discussion board and leave your feedback--my team and I monitor the thread and will pop in from time to time to answer questions.I want to emphasize how much we appreciate the time you take to send us comments. Your opinion on what works--and what doesn't--helps us build a better tool. On behalf of the My eBay team, thank you!Sincerely,Renee VonBergenProduct Management
