Microsoft is committed to the ubiquity of the Skype experience - communication across every device and every platform will remain a primary focus.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Skype is for any individual who has a broadband Internet connection.
Skype is one of the world's greatest inventions. I use it almost daily to connect with the people I care about when I'm away shooting. It makes the distance so much more bearable and I actually feel like I'm in the same room as my loved ones.
The overall experience Skype provided was superior to other folks because of the underlying architecture and the ability to provide a superior experience.
Skype is easy enough to use so that people don't need to be tech savvy - a lot of users just want to communicate with their friends and family, and they find this is the easiest, cheapest way.
Skype is a wonderful thing. The irony is that you never Skype when you're in the same country as someone.
People need to access Skype wirelessly, no matter where they are, and what happens is that we'll be taking advantage of the rollout of Internet everywhere - WiFi and WiMax in particular.
Every day at Skype, I am able to connect with employees from around the world and engage with them on a level that just is not possible through a conference call or email.
At our core, Microsoft is the productivity and platform company for the mobile-first and cloud-first world.
With Skype video calling, teachers can provide their students with first-hand knowledge from experts around the world and with other classes who are studying the same subject halfway across the world.
There's a shift to mobile apps; I'd like to see a more pervasive communications experience, and I think Skype can contribute to that.
