Thanks garryi. Skype is the next phenomenon from the people who brought you KaZaA. Just like KaZaA, Skype uses P2P (peer-to-peer) technology to connect you to other users – not to share files this time, but to talk and chat with your friends.
The technology is extremely advanced – but super simple to use... You'll be making free phone calls to your friends in no time! Here's some of its features:
- Free unlimited worldwide phone calls to other Skype users
- Superior sound quality – better than your regular phone
- Works with all firewall, NAT and routers – nothing to configure!
- Friends list shows you when your Skype friends are online and ready to talk or chat
- Super-simple and easy to use
- Your calls are encrypted "end-to-end" for superior privacy
- Based on cutting edge peer-to-peer technology developed by the creators of Kazaa and Joltid
