Skype Now Lets Anyone Join A Chat – Even If They Don’t Have An Account
- 9 years ago
Skype is working to make is service more broadly accessible, Microsoft announced today, detailing a new feature that will allow users to invite anyone - even those who don't have a Skype account - to use the service via the Skype for Web interface.
Skype account holders using the Mac, PC or Web application will be able to create the link, which, when clicked, will allow others, including those using Skype's mobile apps on iOS or Android as well as non-users, to join in the conversation automatically.
Microsoft says the feature is currently coming online for Skype users in the U.S. and U.K., but will be expanded to reach the rest of the world over the course of the next couple of weeks.
