New Skype

Bits and Bytes, Thessaloniki, Greece

Yesterday Skype released their new client software versions. The Windows client (v 2.0) is now capable of video calls. I guess I’m eating my hat a bit on this one, because I didn’t see them going there. The new Mac client is still 1.4.x (up from 1.3) and while it doesn’t support video, does add a few new features I like.

I thought some people would care to know. All we need now is for the Mac version to reach 2.0 and we could have a very nice cross platform video chat tool for free.
