In this project we investigated the feasibility of implementing web services over a peer to peer infrastructure. Working within the eBay Research Labs team, we built several prototypes that leveraged a new feature of the Skype API which allows application to application messages to be exchanged between Skype clients. The prototypes were written as standalone java applications which connect to the Skype API and use java swing classes to provide a user interface.
