Skype is the next phenomenon from the people who brought you KaZaA. Just like KaZaA, this uses P2P (peer-to-peer) technology to connect you to other users – not to share files this time, but to talk for free with your friends. The technology is extremely advanced - but super simple to use. You’ll be making perfect quality free phone calls to your friends in no time. (more…)
Now, don’t get me wrong, I am not abandoning my hope for the ICQ network. Heck, I still use 3rd party messengers (the best one being QIP, which you can find at www.qip.ru) and cracked betas of ICQ, but I digress. I am just more into Skype now. It is such a cool tool and I encourage everyone to sign up for Skype.
You can find the latest version of Skype at http://www.skype.com/ and if you question it’s security, know this. It is owned by the same company as PayPal. Yeah, that makes you feel a little better now, doesn’t it? ^^
