Still he kept on writing. ¡°Young man ,¡±she persisted, ¡°I know Judge Lawson and State Senator (²ÎÒéÔ±) Patton.¡± Handing the ticket to the woman, the officer asked pleasantly, ¡°Tell me, do you know Bill Bronson.¡±

EBay will launch an online group gift-buying service today designed to make it easier for several people to chip in, buy and pay for gifts using their social-network and e-mail contacts£®
EBay North America Vice President Christopher Payne says it is going to be a major step forward in social commerce, which is the still-small practice of selling products through social networks£®Online retail experts aren't as certain, but eBay says the new tool makes it easier for friends and relatives to chip in £¨´ÕÇ®£© for gifts because it eliminates the headache of collecting contributions£®It can also be used for family members to pitch in to buy, say, an expensive child seat for a mother£®
Anything on eBay that's available immediately, rather than up for bid, can be purchased this way starting today at groupgifts£®eBay£®com£®If members of an extended family wanted to buy a gift for one member, one person would choose a gift ¡ª or have one recommended by eBay ¡ª and invite family members to chip in using Facebook or e-mail£®Those who wanted to join in would choose an amount to contribute £¨or agree to pay a requested amount£© and pay using either PayPal or a credit card£®They could also add a personal note£®
If enough people don't chip in, the organizer can ask people to contribute more or choose a less expensive gift£®
"I see myself using this most in cases when I typically might not buy someone what they want because of price," says Nitzan Shaer of Boston, who was part of an online test of the site£®
EBay, with its 200 million products, millions of sellers and mobile commerce proficiency, is a logical place to pull together the products, groups of buyers and payment tools, Payne says£®
At least 12 sites, such as FrumUs£®com and eDivvy£®com, facilitate £¨±ãÓÚ,ÀûÓÚ£© group purchases but don't sell products£®Although a handful of retailers, including Victoria's Secret and 1-800-Flowers, sell products through Facebook, Payne says he expects social commerce will take off as rapidly as shopping using mobile devices£®EBay did more than $600 million in sales on mobile devices last year and expects mobile sales to increase to $1£®5 billion this year£®
Although one in five consumers surveyed said they'd used Facebook for shopping in the past year, 88% said they would not be buying holiday gifts through a social network, mobile phone or smartphone£®Of these, 26% were reluctant because of security or privacy concerns, and 20% were unclear about the benefits of using phones or Facebook to shop£®
