Skype closing?

[Flisker]

How ignorant this may sound but companies like eBay, Google, Microsoft, you can add in Apple... will always have a comfortable future ahead of them... As technology develops, you may never know... these companies could be gone, unlikely though.


Big lost for google if they don't manage to keeping getting the code that they need to power skype.....

$2.5 Billion down the drain... ouch, it's pounds to ebay anyway.

Google didn't buy out Skype, eBay did.

Sounds messy. The have "Done a Microsoft" so to speak, with the patients.

What do Microsoft do with patients? I wasn't aware Microsoft employees were medically trained

Want to be put on life support now?

Well we have a long time to still enjoy Skype. I don't see it going "fully", probably some agreement will come out anyway.
