Have a look at that quite interesting paper on why Google should invest in new acquisitions and why it should disinvest in Skype: Will eBay Go Shopping?.
But, when will Skype stop to claim it has 276 million users? It are more than 300 million user ACCOUNTS right now, not USERS, according to Skype.
I have 20 user accounts (some spare for family members) but i am only one user!
See why user is NOT the same as user account in some of my previous posts, and here in (if i remember) the first one: How many users does Skype have today? (April 2006), and see the estimate of real (or active) Skype users here: Borderless Communicator.

My Skype Status:
now only about numbers, sometimes, but in the past ...
I WAS publishing here my thoughts about Skype, and mainly about the "numbers". Indeed, as a first hour user, since almost the beginning of the exponential growth i tried to register some data about it. I published in the past as a Guest Blogger in Skype Journal and Skype News some graphs and comments and will continue this here.
English isn't my mother tongue: corrections are highly appreciated!
About Me
- Jean Mercier
- I registered a Skype account on September 26, 2003. Bit by bit I became a fanatic user, helping other users on the Skype Forum. From one thing came another, and Skype made me "Super User" on their forum, some kind of recognition for all the help I provided (to be honest, I am not that active anymore). And, I also began to collect data on the growth of Skype. In real life I am a management consultant.
