Skype soft has launched a
video messaging service that allows its subscribers to deliver recorded clips
to Skype contacts for playback when they come online. The service is initially available for
users running Skype on Android, Apple's iPhone and Mac OS X computers and is
part of the Skype Premium package that costs $10 per
month. Non-subscribers are being offered 20 free messages over the
next three months to try the service. Each message can be up to
three minutes long and the feature is available through the "plus"
button in Skype apps running on supported systems.
"We're looking for
feedback," said Chaim Haas, a spokesman for Skype. He said users can
connect with Skype through Twitter and its Facebook page.
Skype inadvertently
disclosed the feature in December when it updated its terms of service to
include a description of the video messaging service.
The full service will be
launched later this year.
