Skype is a voice over Internet Protocol (VOiP) telephone service that allows you to make and receive calls over the Internet on your computer. Skype offers both free and paid services. Free Skype services include the ability to make and receive calls on your computer to and from other Skype members, instant messaging, file transfer and video conferencing. With Skype’s paid services, you can get a local telephone number for your computer that people can call from a traditional land or cellular telephone, and you can also call regular land or cellular telephone numbers from your computer’s Skype application.
