Created by the people who brought you Kazaa, Skype for Mac 2.6.0.151 uses innovative P2P (peer-to-peer) technology to connect you with other users.What is Skype for Mac?
Skype is software that enables you to make free calls anywhere in the world in minutes. It is quick and easy to install and offers several features, including SkypeOut calling from Skype to regular and mobile phones worldwide, free conference calling, and secure file transferring. Skype calls have better sound quality than your regular phone calls and are highly secure with end-to-end encryption.
Freeware Skype for Mac 2.6.0.151 offers a graphically pleasing interface that's much like a chat program. To make calls, you'll need to create a contact list of friends and family or use the phone-like interface to dial people directly. To make free calls, both parties will need to have the Skype software installed. To call regular phones, you'll need to sign up for a plan with SkypeOut, the developer's paid service that offers cheap by-the-minute calling.
Skype 2.6.0.151 has a good intuitive chat-like interface and excellent sound quality, even using regular desktop speakers. Similar to a chat client, you can set your availability status, but we also would like to see a missed-call indicator or, better yet, some form of voicemail. You also can access a pull-down menu for painless conference calls of up to four people.
