A fresh, lighter way to begin a Skype conversation and invite anyone to join

Update: We’ve been hard at work and are pleased to announce that now Skype users worldwide can invite anyone to join a Skype talk by sharing a unique link and anyone can join as a Guest on Skype for Web. Make sure you’re on the latest version of Skype for Windows, Mac or Web, click +Fresh and send your unique URL to anyone, even if they’re not on Skype.

In the early days, Skype’s objective was to get the entire world talking for free; we wished people to share more and to say hello to at least one fresh person every day. Over the years, our purpose has remained the same: to break down communication barriers, making it lighter for everyone to come together on Skype. Wherever you are, whatever device you have – from computer and mobile, to tablet and TV – Skype just works. Skype makes it effortless to get together and talk one to one or in a group, to hear a friendly voice and see eye to eye, all for free.

Today, we’re excited to announce something fresh – a puny switch that will make a big difference to how people use Skype every day. We’ve embarked to roll-out the capability for users to invite anyone to join a Skype talk by sharing a unique link – send it however you want, in an email, on Facebook, WhatsApp, Messenger or Twitter.

But best of all, anyone can join the talk as a guest from their computer using Skype for Web and love one to one or group instant messaging, voice and movie calls. No Skype account or app download required. Now you can use Skype to talk with anyone and not just the people in your Skype contact list.

You can commence, share and join a conversation from Skype for Windows, Skype for Mac, and Skype for Web in the US and UK. Guests can join on Skype for Web. Additionally, if you have a Skype name and Skype downloaded on your mobile, you can join a conversation on Skype for iPhone, iPad and Android. We’ll be rolling out to the rest of the world over the next duo of weeks and bringing the capability to commence a conversation and share a link from mobile devices soon. Observe this space for the latest updates.

Commence a brand fresh conversation with someone fresh on Skype today. To give it a attempt, click +Fresh in the latest version of Skype for Windows, Skype for Mac or Skype for Web, then share a unique link with anyone. They just need to click the link to join your conversation. Amazingly elementary!
