I use is VERY regularly throughout the day to communicate with co-workers and friends and when I could not get to them easily for the past few days it was strange.Not that it is as bad as some people will profess. I can still call, email, fax, knock on their door, use MSN Messenger or simply do without for a day or so but I agree that it still did not feel right.This is the first time that I have seen Skype go down and from the reaction to the event I bet it will be the last for a LONG time. Keep up the good word guys. You are still the easiest to use, cheap (free) and most reliable service of it’s kind out there.
