Skype is definitely one of the most enjoyed VoIP services and it is well known that people use it and love it.
Video streams have a decent pace and the video calls have a good viewing quality. We did a couple of tests thinking that there might be a few issues with the platform, however there were a lot less than we expected. So, if you’re not quite accustomed with Chrome and Safari, you should, because the WebRTC plugin the service requires has only been integrated in these two platforms for now.Īs for when this plugin will be fully compatible with Chromebooks, Microsoft didn’t supply any information on the subject. So, Chromebook owners as well as Linux users can finally use the Beta version of Skype for Web and connect with their friends via instant messaging, but for video calls they still have to use an installed Skype app on a PC or laptop.Īnother important thing you should know is that you have to use the Safari on Mac OS X and Chrome on Windows in order to be able to use the Skype web service. Now, your browser can support video and voice calls, instant messaging and file sharing and all these thanks to Skype for Web, the service that brought all the VoIP’s popular features on the browsers. If until now, you had to download and install a Skype app in order to use the service, things just got easier. After opening a Web Beta version for Skype, available only in US and UK, this week Microsoft has rolled out the service for the whole world to try. The Skype team announced earlier in a blog post, that after a week full of hard work, they can launch the service Skype Web to the world (beta version).
