‘Microsoft Ties Skype Into Windows 8’ – ‘ReadWrite’

The latest post on ‘ReadWrite’ is titled “Microsoft Ties Skype Into Windows 8”.

Mark Hachman says, “On Monday, Microsoft brought Skype into the Windows 8 fold, integrating it so tightly into the PC, phone, and tablet experience that it’s essentially the Microsoft Office of connectivity.

Naturally, Microsoft’s communications software received a “Metro”-style update, with contacts visually represented as pictures, rather than the text-heavy interface Skype previously used. Yes, you can still use other VOiP and communication clients in Windows 8. But as with the Office suite, Microsoft encourages you to use its software by tying Skype to its People contact manager”.
