Skype is actually rather good…

I downloaded Skype the other day. Ooooooh congrats Phil I hear you sarcastically cheer, welcome to the 21st century! Well the reason I was hesitant was two fold. a) I didn’t feel I needed it and b) it was developed by the same people who bought us Kazaa which was a file sharing program loaded with Spyware, malware, adware and even tupperware. But I digress…

Nice quick install and a good interface and I was making calls very easily. The call quality is top notch and I was very impressed by the fact that I can call the US free on their toll free numbers and just over 1p/min on normal lines. A lot of my suppliers are overseas so kerching is in order methinks…
