The Skype Revolution

There has been a profound change in the realm of communication over a period. We have drastically improved in the ways we communicate, from foot messengers to telegraph and from telephone to Internet. Today, by tapping a few buttons, we can talk to our family or friends living in any corner of the world. Several leading telephone companies and Internet providers are busy to provide efficient communication services to users. However, nothing can beat Skype in terms of easy and cheap communication. Niklas Zennström, a Swedish entrepreneur, and Janus Friis, a Danish entrepreneur, alongside a team of software developers designed this unique software, which has revolutionized communication.

With the help of Skype, it is possible to make calls over the Internet via Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP). Using a Skype VoIP phone, you can make a call to another Skype user for free. You are only charged when you make a call from your Skype VoIP phone to landlines and cell phones. Skype offers facilities like instant messaging, file transfer, and video-conferencing. The SkypeIn feature allows users to receive calls on their computers from regular phone subscribers to a local Skype phone number. Skype provides local numbers for countries, like Australia, Brazil, Chile, Denmark, the Dominican Republic, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Japan, Mexico, New Zealand, Poland, Romania, South Korea, Sweden, Switzerland, the United Kingdom, and the United States. They offer high-quality video-conferencing with full-screen and screen-in-screen modes. The Skypecasting facilitates recording voice over IP voice calls and teleconferences. These recordings are used for podcasting, enabling audio and video content to be syndicated across the Web. Skype is compatible with all major platforms, such as Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux. Some Skype-enabled devices are Skype cordless phones, Skype headsets, Skype Wi-Fi phones, and more.
