One Last Share

This will be the last share entry of the year. The next reflection blog will be the very last reflection.

Microsoft recently bought Skype, one of the largest video chatting service companies on the market today. A majority of Skype's features are free, but there is a paid option, allowing the user access to Computer-to-Phone and group video chat. Microsoft means a couple things for the future of Skype: a lot of media attention and maybe more paid features. This may drive away users who love it because it's so simple and free. I have used Skype on occasion and was surprised on how flexible it was depending on the user's internet connection. the video quality changes based on how much lag is being caused by the current resolution. More about this event can be found here.
