Finally official - Skype for your GSM.

After waiting so and already lost hope, the official version of Skype for mobile phones is ready for a while now in Beta. If not now then very soon you will not need to use applications such as Fring, iSkoot, and others.
Supported marks are now - Nokia, Samsung, Sony Ericson and Motorola
Some of the models are in the directory are in gray with the words "Comming Soon", which do you cease to try that will not work on your phone. The requirement is to support Java.

The limits are great for now, but remember that this is Beta, and with time everything will become better. For now you can only make chat sessions, not to call from Bulgaria. Countries in which calls are working:
Estonia, Finland, Denmark, Poland, United Kingdom, Brazil and Sweden.
In Bulgaria you can use the following services:
• To see who is online
• To conduct chats (including group)
• To change the settings of your account

Free? Not exactly.

Free computer services remain free and the phone, but you have to mention that internet connection the phone is more expensive. Chat habi little traffic, but better not to leave Skype running on your phone all the time. I could not find information whether it is possible to use Wi-Fi.
To call Bulgaria will obviously waiting much. Yet mention that calls Skype-to-Skype will go through our mobile network operator (Mtel, Globul, Vivatel) and they may allow us a number of free minutes a month, after spending which talks will be paid . If you have SkypeOut credit and will be able to receive calls, but you'll pay for them.

So ... this is a Beta version of Skype for mobile phone. For now is the back of Fring and iSkoot. The question arises whether the ban will SkypeLimited calls using internet connection through the phone Fring.

Skype Launcher - two Skype on one computer in the easiest way

In this article I will try to present you the easiest possible way to login to date in two Skype accounts (two programs simultaneously open Skype) of a computer.
Solution has been a long time, unfortunately it only now learning. This is about a small program - Skype Launcher, a voluntary basis by the user in the Skype Forums - Stefan82
The biggest advantage of Skype Launcher is that it requires the creation of a second windows account - any computer you sit down to sign with a Skype-two seconds after its done just remove the code. It is important to mention also that, unlike competitors MultiSkype, SkypeLauncher works on Vista.

The program is not production of Skype Limited ®, using her own risk. Hope that no one. Test it, no problems, according to Download.com is not spyware.

Here are some guidelines:

1. SkypeLauncher download from here (Download.com)
2. Extract the downloaded file
3. SkypeLauncher.exe running and ready!

You'll notice that the archives of "go" three files --
• readme.txt - Information Program
• SkypeLauncher.exe - Program
• SkypeLauncher_Config.exe - This is used only if you want to save the name (s) and password (the password) to log in to automatic.
It is important to remove the box "automatically entered to run Skype" - it will act in the first instance of Skype.

Skype Launcher without installation - in his first start added two keys on the register of Windows which can not hurt in further remove the program..

Requirements:
• visual basic 6 runtimes - If you have a Windows XP Service Pack 2 or Vista certainly have it if you do not - you can download it from here Visual Basic runtimes 6

Imo.im - Skype, ICQ and others in the browser

Imo.im is a relatively new service that allows chat and (video) when the most popular networks in the web interface without the software you need for each program.

By Imo.im can connect to multiple chat networks and VoIP through their website or program for Windows. Networks that currently support: Skype, MSN, Yahoo Messenger, Google Talk, AIM, ICQ, and MySpace.

Recently been added sheets in Skype. You can enter your username and password and you will notice a window with your friends and their status. You can chat and even make a video call. This service is a person in the web client and the program you can download to your computer. The only limitation now is that SkypeOut is not supported.

What can we benefit Imo.im?

Imo you can use when you are on your computer - at a friend or the internet room - if not relevant computer installed Skype client will be much more convenient to take advantage of his services. I know also that in many offices have banned programs Skype as communication, there may also slightly circumvent the rules, only the boss might not notice (... and do not issue me):) Do not forget the other advantage - pooling of several programs in one window - no need to suffer severe ICQ or Yahoo Messenger, you can use Imo and converse in several networks in one program. By linking the accounts, and ICQ Skayp example, when you login in Skype program automatically logging you in ICQ.
"IMO is the first such service Skype - until now strange why Skype did not have its own website which can be Online CHAT talk and no software, and gave permission to another.
The service is still not completely finished - it is normal to have bugs, but it would be good to contribute to the development of the IMO, as reported when opening them. If you have knowledge of English, can help to translate Imo.

Security?
There is no reason to worry about your data while using Skype with Internet Explorer or Firefox for example - your name and password, and everything else go through a secure, encrypted connection (HTTPS).
