Microsoft Mail Outlook.com Official integration of Skype services

Free email outlook.com will formally integrate Skype video chat and information Services Sina Technology news Beijing time May 1, Microsoft announced yesterday that the free mailbox Outlook.com will formally integrate Skype video chat and information services, and launch a preview version. Microsoft will first launch the preview version for UK mail users and push them to U.S. and German users in the coming weeks. Microsoft announced late Monday that it would push the service on a massive scale this summer to international users. Microsoft said the service was integrated to give users "less typing and more talk". Simon Longbottom, head of global marketing at Skype, wrote: "Even if the email service is doing well, it's not enough to have text Simon Rombutom." We have all felt that video chatting is more convenient than typing. Sometimes a brief call is much more efficient than a lengthy message. That's why we need to integrate Skype voice and video capabilities into outlook.com. "Microsoft bought Skype in October 2011 and announced last November that it would soon cancel its original Instant messaging service to support Skype's development." Skype executives also said at the end of 10 last year that Skype might replace Microsoft's Instant Messaging Messenger, but declined to disclose a specific time frame. In addition, Skype has released video to show users how to use the integrated services. (Chen)
