The Most Popular Voice Service:
Skype has broken many barriers to
communication. While in the past you needed to take particular care of the
minutes and seconds you spend speaking on international calls, you no longer
need to bother about that now. If you use Skype to make PC to PC communication,
you pay nothing more than the monthly Internet service, which you would anyway
have paid without Skype.
Skype is changing how people communicate
with the integration of voice and IM (Instant Messaging) into one application.
Talk when you want and type when you want, and switch between the two as you
wish, seamlessly.
Presence Information:
Skype also provides presence information in
a very practical way. Presence is the availability and willingness of a person
to communicate. For instance, if you find a buddy online ready to communicate,
then there is presence. Skype allows you to know, if a buddy is offline, when
she is willing to communicate, so you can log back in at that time.
High Quality:
People use Skype mainly for the high
quality of voice it offers and especially because it offers free PC to PC
service. People around the world use Skype for several things: for
long-distance mettings with family, friends and loved ones; for remote activity
monitoring; for business calls; for long-distance conferences; for cheap calls
during travel etc.
Use it Anywhere:
Skype is used in nearly all countries of
the world, as it has been developed in view of delivering clear and consistent
calls over the Internet. Today, there are many Skype user groups around the world. The largest
groups are found in Europe, North America and South East Asia.
