‘Skype for Web’ service will allow you to use skype services from desktop and into the web browser. Though, you may say that Skype is already useable in a web browser browser but this service is only possible through Outlook.com.
What is ‘Skype For Web’ and how it works ?
Microsoft has made Skype available on computers, mobile phones, TVs and even games consoles. But now, not only can Skype be used on just about any screen you lay your hands on, but you can also enjoy Skype on a browser. You can use every basic function and services of skype application on Skype.com. Skype for web is powered by the Web Real-Time Communication (WebRTC), which is now supported by almost every modern browser without need of any plugin. According to skype blog (as written on official blog by Jonathan Watson ) As we have mentioned above the service is still in beta version and it is not fully available yet. Skype for Web will be offered to some selected people to test and it will be publicly available in upcoming weeks/months.
