For an insider’s perspective on Skype matters, check out the Skype Community News, Skype’s blog about, well, Skype.
Note that last week, Skype was bought by Ebay
for a total of US$ 4.1 billion. Wow. That can take care of
a year’s foreign-debt servicing by the Philippine Government!
What Skype Community News says of it:
So was there something to celebrate? Plenty. We think at
the end of the day, the deal is good news for our Skype callers, who
are the people that matter most. This doesn’t mean that we know exactly
what is going to happen and everything has been set down in detail.
There are a lot of loose ends, or scenarios, or challenges, or
opportunities, whatever you want to call them. But we know that a large
part of the deal focuses on Skype maintaining everything that is good
about it, such as its own product and identity.
