Skype
In 2011, Microsoft bought Skype, the popular chat, audio-chat, and video-
chat program. (The price: $8.5 billion. For Microsoft, pocket change.)
In 2013, Skype officially became a standard Microsoft Store app. (Its
predecessor, an app called Messenger, went to the great CompUSA in the
sky.)
Skype is a game-changer. It’s the app millions of middle-aged parents use to
call their kids studying abroad…new parents use to show their babies to the
grandparents…and long-distance couples use to video chat. Skype finally
comes preinstalled with Windows 10—you don’t have to download it
anymore. And the best part: All this voice and video calling is free.
For a handy guide to setting up and using Skype, see the free downloadable
PDF appendix “Skype” on this book’s “Missing CD” page at
