Re: Skype
Skype is often used as a pseudonymous option for voice chat, so there's that.

Re: Skype
Exactly!
And it's my opinion that people would just rather use their phone than go on a laptop or desktop. Consumers are always wanting things quick and right away. As do I. So it makes sense to just pull out your phone and facetime with someone rather than go on Skype.

Re: Skype
Agreed.
I mean as we move through a period of digital transformation and the new advances in the world I, personally, think Skype will become a thing of the past.

Re: Skype
Agreed. It's something that served a purpose, but now the technology has become a default feature on so many devices, it's redundant.

Re: How does Skype even work now?
Transformation, as I see it, means that we have to be willing and able to change--we have all be witness to those who have not as adaptable. Anyone remember Digital, for instance? The prominence Digital had in an old George Clooney/Nicole Kidman Movie as Nicole Kidman banged away on one of the Digital Laptops is striking....I would humbly suggest though we have got to make sure the best of our traditions is maintained for the sake of a sense of purpose.
Onward to Q2

Re: Skype
Yeah, I guess I'm just so hooked on my phone.
I'm just used to facetime and apps like that rather than Skype on a laptop. I know people can enjoy that. It's just something I'm not accustomed to.

Re: Skype
Haha yes!
I honestly just feel like the whole Skype phase is dying. I'm not really sure who is still using is to talk to people. Usually if people want to talk to someone face to face over a device they use facetime.
Re: How does Skype even work now?
@mpouraryan: Do we? Or, rather, does this "hanging on" prevent our freedom -- to progress?
Latin is pretty cool, though.

Re: How does Skype even work now?
Maybe falling back on traditions may be the saving grace for us all. We have to hang on to something, right?
