I've got a SkypeIn Number now!

Wow - this Skype stuff keeps getting better and better! So I got myself a SkypeIn number now - you can call it from anywhere in the world from any phone (land, mobile, internet) and you can reach me directly. If I'm not in just leave me a voice message and I'll get back to you. Coolio!

The number is based in Madison, Wisconsin, so if you call me you'll have to pay charges to there (unfortunately there aren't any numbers available in Canada yet - but when it happens I'll get one there too!). But calling the US from Canada is cheaper than calling Europe, and now I've actaully got voicemail too :o)

The number is 608.554.0448

Coolio!

And the question for the day today - eBay bought Skype recently for over $2billion. Why would someone pay so much for Skype? What do you think the company is worth? Do you think it's a steal-of-a-deal? Also, there's talk of 'Tech-Bubble 2.0' in reference to tech companies being built on nothing and garnering huge amounts of capital - and then going belly up. Is Skype one of these? Think about it, and see my next post for thoughts :o)
