“It’s a simple case of click
and hello, whether it’s a
message or a video call.
It’s that quick - and that easy.”

Call, instant message, video call and conference with one piece of software and save yourself the cost and hassle of setting up lots of different solutions.
Talk face-to-face to other Skype contacts free from a meeting room or from your computer. It's free anytime, from anywhere in the world.
Use video when you're working together from different locations – anytime you need to 'show me, don't tell me'. It also helps you cut down on travel. See how international surf company Rip Curl uses video calls to work on new designs.
All you need is a computer, a webcam and Skype. Go to our video calling guide
Share your computer screen with Skype contacts over a free video call.
Note: screen sharing is only available in our latest beta version of Skype for Mac OS X and will soon be in the official version of Skype for Mac, plus Skype for Windows.
Whether you're training someone or giving feedback on their work, use screen sharing to show exactly what you mean.
Demonstrate how to use a new program; show where you think the logo should go on the t-shirt design; zero in on the sum that's messing up the spreadsheet – without leaving your desk.
Simply start a video call, then click the share screen button. The person you're calling will then see everything on your screen, or you can limit what they see to a specific area.
