Skype Now Lets You Chat With Facebook Friends And See Your Wall

The latest version of Skype for Mac allows you to chat directly with your Facebook friends, hopefully bringing you a better user experience than the latter’s clusterzuck chat system. It also allows you to see your wall and your friends’.

I wish this happened more often, because I’m tired of having to deal with so many ways to communicate with my friends and family. Imagine a world in which every single instant messaging, voice and visual communication system operated between each other, regardless of the company who owns the system. Or imagine the same in reverse: a world where you couldn’t call someone’s mobile phone because they were in a different network. This is stupid. [Skype]

    This would be cool if the new Skype didn’t suck. Still using 2.8 and will keep using it until the new version doesn’t suck.
    Didn’t the US article mention ads too? Woo ads!
