Skype is taking the world by storm. People just don’t know it yet. Clark thinks this company, which originated in Astonia, has come up with a technology that is going to change the world. Evidently eBay thinks so too, since the company just spent $3 billion buying the company recently. Skype now has more than 100 million users, and Clark is one of them. In our Consumer Action Center, we use Skype to return long distance and international calls. The system uses what’s called a USB phone and the best part is that it’s free for the rest of the year! Christa was able to load Skype onto her cell phone and called Clark on it the other day. The call quality on Skype is not as good as some other services, but hopefully it will get better. But times are a changing in this industry for sure. Americans are slow to catch on, as usual. But eventually we will. Just remember that if you sign up for Skype and someone overseas signs up, you can both talk for free! You can’t beat that with a stick.
