A little piece of software that lets you talk over the internet to anyone, anywhere in the world for free.
With Skype’s free software – by the way, it works seamlessly with your
internet connection – you can chat away with free Skype-to-Skype calls
and never worry about cost, time or distance. Share the love and get
your friends to download Skype so you can talk, chat or make video calls
for nothing. You can also make local, long distance and international
calls to phones and mobiles at great rates too. Skype is
jam-packed with great features to help you stay in touch with friends,
family and co-workers, share your thoughts and find the information you
need. OS : Windows XP/Vista7 (x86/x64) Released : April 07, 2011 You
can use it on a computer or get Skype on your mobile so you can keep in
touch on the move, whatever you’re up to. Skype works on a wide range
of mobiles, plus on devices like the PlayStation Portable (PSP). There’s
also a great range of WiFi and cordless phones with Skype built-in. Just
for starters you can instant message with anyone on your contact list
or even use group chat to chat with up to a hundred people. You could
hold a conference call with up to nine other people to organise a
get-together and then use SkypeFind to search for the perfect venue to
hold it. There are also really cool video features. All you need
is a webcam to make free video calls or even take photos of yourself to
personalise Skype. If you use Microsoft Outlook, Outlook Express,
GMail, Hotmail or your mail account with Yahoo! then it’s a simple task
to import contacts and get them all onto your Skype. If they don’t have
Skype yet you can send them invite to download it – then you can talk
for free (and maybe you’ll even get a nice bouquet of flowers and a
chocolate bar from them to say thanks for getting them onto Skype? We’d
like to think that’s in order). Got friends on MySpace? Get them
to download Skype or MySpace’s version of Skype. Then add them to your
Skype contact list and you’ve got even more people to talk to for free.
Simply search for them in Skype and click the MySpaceIM tab in the
search results. Adding someone to your contact list is easy. But
you can also add people who are not yet on Skype and call them on their
phones and mobiles at pretty cheap rates wherever they are. Also,
if your Microsoft Outlook contacts have phone numbers, you can have them
show up on your contact list so you can call them. You’ll need Skype
Credit or a monthly subscription to make calls to phones and mobiles. The
business version of Skype has the same features as the standard
version; however, it also includes Windows Installer (commonly known as
MSI) which makes it easy to install Skype across your company. Use Skype to give your friends a call and voice chat with them at the highest quality on the market.
