Skype announced on its blog that its application will be available on the Windows Store this weekend, to celebrate the release of Windows 8 . This application is presented by Microsoft as fast, easy and beautiful.
As with other Microsoft applications, this application uses very modern design with Windows 8 include a dynamic icon (or Live Tile) with missed calls and messages that appear on the Home screen.
At application startup, the recent conversations and contacts are immediately visible and some contacts can even be favourites To make a call or start a conversation with a contact, just simply click on their profile. Skype contacts are naturally integrated into the address book by default Windows 8.
Skype also has a section phone to call anywhere in the world and know the exact cost of the call, enter the number using the keyboard or even check the latest calls. The application runs in the background logically on Windows 8 and displays a notification when you have new messages or calls.
Finally, the famous VoIP software acquired last year by Microsoft takes full advantage of the experience of the Redmond company to offer a Windows 8 worthy of the name.
