Second, you need to have an internet connection. If you don’t have an account, you can sign up for one here. There are a few things you need to know before you start using Skype.įirst, you need to have an account with Skype. It can be used on computers, smartphones, or even smart TVs.
Skype is a free communication software that lets you call people on two devices at the same time. Click on the message that you want to view.Ĥ. When you send or receive a Skype message, you can view it by following these simple steps:ģ. This information is then used to help improve the communication between people. This is done by keeping track of the calls and messages that have been sent and received. One of the things that Skype does is track people’s history. It also allows people to store and share video and audio files. It is a free software application that allows people to talk without leaving their computer. I think this is a pretty groovy update.Skype is a communication tool that is used by millions of people around the world. For Mac users, there’s Retina display support, and open chats in multiple windows. This version also includes (for Windows users) localization in more languages, the interface revamp I was telling you about, as well as some other fixes. For now, I’m pretty happy with the current offer. Microsoft has promised that audio and video calls with Windows Live Messenger contacts should also be available soon. You can decide which friends you want to see, so you can find someone in a flash. I just love this and I think that, if Microsoft can include Yahoo Messenger in this, Skype could become a great multi-messenger client (it already is, really). Now you’ll be able to chat with friends on Facebook and Windows Live, too. In Facebook’s case you’ll need to allow some permissions, but you can’t get it wrong otherwise.
I did it for Facebook and for my Windows Live account. If you login with an external account Skype will ask you whether you would like to merge that account with your Skype one. Previously, Skype account were only for Skype and they didn’t integrate with other services.
An option to sign in with these will appear now when you start Skype after the update. What I loved about it most is that now you can actually sign in to Skype with a Facebook or Microsoft account (the new included). You’ll be able to find your way around it, but it does look Windows 8-ish a little. Turning it into an universal multi-messenger service is just one item on the list, but we’ll get to that in a second.įirst of all the new version (6.0), which was officially announced today for Windows and Mac, has a revamped interface. This update comes just before the official Windows 8 release and emphasizes that Microsoft plans to capitalize on its 8 billion dollar investment in big ways.
