3. Skype Introduction
• Software that enables the world's conversations.
• Millions of individuals and businesses use Skype
to make free video and voice calls, send instant
messages and share files with other Skype users.
• Everyday, people also use Skype to make low-cost
calls to landlines and mobiles

4. Skype is a communications tool
• Humans are really, really, interested in things
that help us communicate with each other
more and better.
• From cave paintings to mobile phones, it’s
always the same.
• And this is even more true for young people.
They are forging their social identity through
conversation.

5. Skype is free
 Free is quite interesting to people. Especially
free and good.
 And it’s more interesting still to impoverished
young people!
 If you tell your friends to get Skype too, you
can talk for as long as you like without
worrying about the cost or the distance.

6. Skype’s success
• 0 to customers in 2.5 years.
• Nearly 200 million customers today.
• Still growing at 200,000 new users every day.

7. Right idea, right time
• There was plenty of internet calling software
before Skype. But it didn’t work very well, and
lots of people still had slow dial-up internet
connections.
• It’s a very ‘native’ product for young people.

8. Simple and easy
• Skype worked really hard on making Skype as
easy to install and use as possible.
• We knew it was easy enough when Geoffrey’s
grandma could use it. (Geoffrey is one of the
original Skypers.)
• Ease of use is important for busy young people
too. Hence the iPod, people moving to
Facebook…

9. • Skype feels free
• Skype is free. More than that though, it feels
free.
• Free helps people realise that Skype is a
different kind of company.
• We took something that big companies
charged quite a lot for, and gave it to you for
free. Nice, eh?
