The Chicken and the Egg

OK so we partnered with Skype…

The question I have heard from a few quarters is “What is the difference for openBC users except having a Skype download link?”

If you have a blank entry for Skype in your personal profile under;

Skype name

then the answer to the above question is “Not a lot to see here…” (Except Sally)

Now if you have downloaded and installed Skype and you have entered your Skype name into your personal profile, then you will see something, and here the key word is “something”, again not very much.

You can also share you Skype name by simply checking the Instant messaging data check box on the profile of the person you wish to have see your Skype name and then clicking ‘Save’.

Now if you have installed Skype and you have entered your Skype name and you have shared your  ‘Instant messaging data’ with your contacts and they have  shared  their  ‘Instant messaging data’ with you  then  you will see  our new Skype menu.

It may all sound a bit complicated now and in fact it is EASY;  just downlod Skype and install it, enter your Skype name into your personal contact info and share your ‘Instant messaging data’ with your contacts.

Then you can communicate even more easily and for free courtesy of Skype and openBC.
(Sorry guess that last line sounds like a sales pitch)
