Overview

Skype is the most well known for it's face-to-face video chat capabilities and secondarily known for being able to just call someone over a computer's Internet connection, thus being able to bypass phone costs, phone time, and data usage. However, Skype also includes the feature of instant messaging. In a world where many other companies also have versions of instant messaging, forums, live-chat rooms (bulletin boards), discussion groups, and live personal message (PM) chats, Skype's chat features still stand out from the rest! See Skype: Messaging Features.
