New Skype software

A new version of Net phone calling software from Skype Technologies has won over critics who found problems with earlier versions of the same software, reports eWeek.

Improvements in Skype 2.0 include free video calling and the ability to sort contacts into groups like colleagues, friends and family, in response to criticism of an earlier test version of the software.

The report says with 222 million downloads of its software, Skype is probably the best known of the new breed of companies offering free software that allows an Internet connection to double as a local, national or international phone line.
