EBay Neighborhoods enable eBay members to write product reviews, make comments and add photos.  The idea is to create a social environment making purchasers feel much more confident in their bids. It also far surpasses the text based discussion forums which are currently the most popular way to discuss products at eBay.
 
"People who are passionate about certain brands, trends, celebrities or products have been discovering and trading with one another for years," said Jamie Iannone, an eBay vice president in charge of buyer experience. "Neighborhoods makes this even easier."
