We have MSN links etc. in our profiles but what about Skype?

I installed it on Thursday & had a couple of calls... very impressed.

Can anyone explain how skype works and how much. I was offered a skype phone for £30 the other day, but i said no as i wasn't sure about it. Can you ring a normal landline etc or do you have to ring people who are on skype.
Is it really free to make calls or is there a catch

Skype to Skype is free, you can use Skype-out to make calls from Skype to landlines, there are no rentals but you do pay for calls.... you can find everything you need on their homepage www.skype.com

I had a call directly from my laptop with out a headset.. there was no feedback which I have experienced in the past with Netmeeting for example. You probably would only need to buy a phone if you wanted to use Skype without a computer?

When I've used it there have been over 5 million users online!!

When I first used skype our conversations contained mostly 'hello?', HELLO? HELLO?. So now would be nice to test it again. My skype ID is netguru2528. Just hooking up my mic headset again!

Anyone know if it's possible to get it on 98se as skype's site says 2000on

can someone explain skype further?

[tbaxter]

Skype's just like an online phone which can call other skype users for FREE. By attaching a microphone headset and webcam, the quality is literally mindblowing. You have to top up with credit to phone landlines and mobiles but your price of a call is something like 0.05p to the USA! It's great!

Add me, Netguru2528
