Skype is a small piece of software that allows you to use Skype to call other people worldwide for free. And even though the calls are free, the quality is excellent. If you and your friends, relatives or business partners use webcams, you can also make free video calls. You can even call landlines and cell phones at unbelievably low minute rates (with no setup or subscription fees).
Just like Instant Messenger, you can use Skype for chats. But at the moment not only with a chat partner, but with up to 100 people in a group chat. And if it was a really interesting chat, you can save it as a favorite for later retrieval. This is particularly useful for ongoing chats with relatives or business partners.
Skype automatically encrypts calls, chats, and file transfers before they are sent over the Internet. This way no one can intercept your call, text message or file. And all without advertising. So you don’t have to worry about annoying popups or banners.
