CCP introduces skill trading to EVE Online, allowing players to transfer skillpoints between characters

Skill Trading is a new option for EVE Online players to use Skill Extractors to remove accrued skillpoints from one character in order to create an item called a Skill Injector. That Skill Injector can then be traded to another character--typically for in-game currency via the markets of EVE--and used to apply a pool of skillpoints to the second character, boosting whatever skill levels they want to apply the skill points to.
