Skype, the popular free VOIP (Voice Over Internet Protcol) unit of eBay, June 18 released a revamped platform that makes it easier for the service's 309 million users to make video calls from their computers. The new Skype 4.0 Beta for Windows aims to leverage the factoid that in the first quarter of 2008, 14 billion Skype calls, or 28 percent, were video calls. That's the biggest change and it is a slam dunk at a time when users are increasingly using the Web as a preferred means of communication with friends, colleagues and business partners.
Short of being face-to-face with your best friend whose summering in Paris, Skype 4.0 lets you conduct video chats with he or she from U.S. to Europe right from your computer to her laptop by making a single click on the Video call button. Users can choose to have an IM conversation alongside the video call, also with one click, from one window. New unified conversations capabilities pull instant messaging, voice, video, file transfers, SMS and calls together, allowing users to easily move in and out of conversations between single users or groups.
