June 21, 2004 — Skype launches Skype for Linux!
My Picture Today Skype released the first beta version of Skype for Linux. “We’ve had strong demand for a Linux version of Skype since debuting the Skype for Windows beta 10 months ago,” said Niklas Zennstrom, Skype’s CEO and co-founder. “Skype will continue to innovate by offering new quality telephony options, and listen to our users in setting priorities.”

Please download latest version and read release notes and FAQ.

What is Skype?
Skype is free and simple software that will enable you to make free calls anywhere in the world in minutes. It has superior sound quality and works with all firewall, NAT and routers.

Download Skype for Windows, PocketPC, and Linux. (Sorry, no Mac download, yet.)

Thought:
Skype is cool. It is free, simple, fast and good sound quality! Especially the conference feature, it allows you to have online phone meeting up to five persons! With Skype for Linux, it connects Linux and Windows users together! Hopefully the Mac version will come out soon.

(My ex company was looking for similar solution for online meeting…)
