Planting seeds of ideas allows room for improvement in eBay's new 'Garden by eBay,' launched today.

This new greenhouse-like device gives eBay users an opportunity to play with new features offered by the company before they are officially released.

Christopher Payne, eBay vice president of search said,  "The new Garden by eBay represents a new collaborative conversation with the eBay community--a chance to listen to their thoughts on upcoming features, and to bring them closer to our own innovation process. And by seeding the Garden with streamlined search, we're asking for the community's input on improving one of the most important areas of eBay.com."

This experimental zone comes with the intention of generating feedback from eBay members. By participating in the growth of the "Garden," appropriate modifications can be made to refine the overall product.

 

Dane Glasgow, eBay vice president of engineering: "We're asking the eBay community for as much feedback as possible on the test features in the new Garden by eBay so we can design and build better site improvements. Our streamlined search started with a blank canvas and the chance to put forward a simpler, more efficient search experience. With the community's help, we'll make great strides along the path to improve search on eBay."

eBay has opened a door for members to interact and have a say in necessary changes that could be made. Take advantage of this chance to input your ideas. Maybe by helping eBay's "Garden" flourish,  user critiques will help small businesses operating on eBay.
