Amidst the formal announcement of Skype Video Gold for Mac this month, lots of users worldwide aired their dissatisfaction over the latest updates for Skype 2.0. One of the primary concern is the video quality. It is said that it gained inferior video conferencing capability than to its previous version 2.0.0.3 (beta). According to the users discussion, they rather go back to the previous version than to gamble their Macs to the present upgrades. In my personal opinion, it seems that Skype developers have not tested it well specially to all Mac skype capable machines. They have waited the users to react and tested their product for possible in compatibility and glitches. They have first to consider some plug and play devices attached and built in into Mac machines and study more for its product quality control before it opens for public. Nevertheless, this is a product in progress and for sure Skype developers are doing its job to address this glitches and at least we, skype users must...

I have received this link from a friend in L.A who is fond of watching videos from You Tube, Filmstack and Google Video. This viral ad campaign seems to work nowadays and it easily capture wide audience. The birth of P2P application such as Skype can make this viral a success because it can easily be shared to anyone. Aside from this, it has the capability to syndicate its contents and post it to your blog. I'm just hoping that someday, Skype would create an option to record a video call at the same time you can use this to record your own personal video. www.

After making a big splash in the news through its $2.6 billion deal with eBay, Skype Technologies can't be happy about a malicious Trojan horse that is circulating as an e-mail attachment and purports to be the newest release of the company's Internet telephone software. The e-mail, claiming to contain version 1.4 of Skype's VoIP (voice over Internet Protocol) software client, contains a variant of the IRCbot Trojan horse, according to MessageLabs Ltd., which issued a warning earlier this week after detecting and blocking hundreds of copies of the new variant. Skype released the new version on Oct. 10. A widespread of unsolicited e-mail, or spam, contains malicious software, as criminal groups seek to infect computers with malware in order to add new systems to their botnets, or zombie networks . Users who launch the attachment see a fake "installation error" box on their screens, according to MessageLabs. What is actually happening, however, is that the malware i...

Though it is on a beta, this is a nice upgrade to my Skype 1.5 and this gives me the ability to use video conferencing to my boss while he is in New York.

A news broke out about Nokia's shipping new version of the N80, which is dubbed as the Internet Edition. The phone offers wireless LAN access with an easy-to-use wizard to help in configuring Internet access. It is said that it contains “Internet services not previously installed together on Nokia devices.” The good news about the phone is that it allows users to place Internet calls using voice-over Internet protocol (VOIP) that have been an issue with the Telcos in the Philippines and we never knows whether Telcos will be actively promoting this in our country, as they have been continually campaigning against it. VOIP is a solution for all users who frequently has conversation abroad and it threatens to eat up the cash flow that the long-distance phone company charges. One of its feature is “You can share your moments online—take a snap photo and send it directly from your device to your Flickr site for your friends and family to enjoy, too.

Janus Friis, the co-founder of the widely popular voice-over-IP software Skype, will be in the Philippines as one of the speakers at the first Philippine Voice-over-IP Conference (VOIPCON) in Makati City on June 26. The 30-year-old Dane’s topic has yet to be set though the original plan was for him to highlight the benefits of using VoIP as a business tool. An INQ7.NET source said Friis already flew in, albeit quietly, to the Philippines via Cebu early this year, to look into possible business opportunities in the country. The source also said Friis would be back in the Philippines next week to close a deal with a VoIP provider in the Philippines. Skype was created by Friis with Niklas Zennstrom in 2003. The software allows its users to call other Skype users for free and also features five-way voice-conferencing. Pay versions of Skype allow users to make calls from a PC to a traditional landline phone. The application is highly popular among executives in the Philippines who use it ...

I remember Niklas Zennstrom , the mastermind behind Kazaa and Skype, when i read about him at BBC Click Online and discussed how his two inventions came about, and how broadband and wireless devices are shaping his vision for the future. Niklas Zennstrom's software inventions had provoke an explosion in file swapping technology in the world and still there are few people in the world who can claim to have invented something that captured the imagination of hundreds of millions of people. But this man has done it twice. It all started while he was working for the European low cost Telco Tele 2 in the mid-1990s, where he met his friend and colleague Janus Friis , his co-founder of Skype and Kazaa , the world’s most downloaded software, responsible for the most popular software that underpins the FastTrack file sharing network protocol. It was on March 2001, when the duo had created Kazaa and were cashing in on the file-swapping boom kicked off by Napster , a music file P2P porta...

Today, several big names in internet business likes of Yahoo and Google had already joined the bandwagon. But they cannot surpassed the popularity of SKYPE . Since my first exposure to the internet way back 2002, I've been facinated with all these internet stuff that simplifies our world right in our computer desktop. I have tried to call PC to landline software but it is not yet supported here in the Philippines during those years. The good thing with the developement of Skype by the same mastermind of P2P software Kazaa . is that they have maintained their original business model- giving it for FREE.
