Hello, simply click on the link below, and download Skype:

Calling other people on Skype is free so you can talk whenever you want to – not just on special occasions. Call to check in with mum when you’re travelling, give your partner a goodnight kiss via video call when they’re away on business, or use it for your regular calls and catch ups. And, if you know people who don’t use Skype you can call them too at really low rates.

It’s easy and it’s free to download.

  • Screen sharing
  • Send contacts
  • Birthday reminders
  • Better call quality
  • Better video quality
  • Accessibility features

Main features

  • Free Skype-to-Skype calls.
  • Call phones and mobiles, send SMS.
  • Free instant messaging.
  • Voicemail.
  • Free video call.
  • Forward calls to a phone when you’re offline.

I know Daniel's intention, he meant well, nothing to do with advertisment but something to do with wanting people to get together through chat, call and see each other through webcam which bring peple get even closer and efectively,,,,,,without spending any penny  ;)

If so I would remove it without a blink, but I just wanted to bring people together through webcam and free calls, theres an idea for chess.com, the one up from chess.com live chess - Chess.com-FC (FC - free calls via webcam) or chess games through webcam, could be good?...

Should you be advertising other companies on this website? Could be getting into hot water with the chess.com staff

I also use skype to keep contact with my relatifs in my country Inondeisa, also  to keep contact with my chess friends here in chess.com, and It's efective to keep contact among group's Adminstrators, that what I do everyday.
I set my profile as private, public can't see my profile or make contact with me, only people in my friend's list.

I use to chat/talk with my chess friends during live chess, cool! we can hear each other laugh, scream, swear hehehe,,,,lots of fun! Laughing

Yes, there is lots of spam, all kind of advertisement epecially sex business! but when you are used to skype you know it's spam and just click on block and click on raport as spam. The profile of those spam usually attach their website.
So, unknown profile with website attached simply block it and click on raport as spam.

Excellent sound, clear and close. Nice to use wireless headset, you can walk around in the house, outside the house, doing something and talking. All this for FREE!!!! Wow, I can see myself I am good in advertaising,,,,NO PAY!! Tongue outLaughing

Are you getting paid by Skype to advertise their product? Re-posting their advertising blurb on your blog is a bit odd... Laughing

Unfortunately, all I get from Skype at the moment is spam contact requests! Yell   I don't use it much anyway, and have downloaded Google Talk instead to check it out.  Other VOIP sofware is available... Wink
