The Microsoft-owned Skype has added a new feature that enables users to make mobile and landline calls. The new feature has been added for web and business services and helps users to make cell phones and landlines calls directly. On March 14 company officials declared that Users can make international calls directly from Skype for The Web to cell phones or landlines using Skype credits or subscriptions.
To access Skype on the Web, users can go to Skype.com or web.skype.com and sign in and connect. Skype for the Web, which is still in beta, alleviates the need to download the Skype app before conferencing and/or instant-messaging others. Microsoft also added the ability to watch a YouTube video directly from inside Skype for the Web via a video link. The ability to add people to a conversation, even if they're not on Skype is another feature Microsoft has brought to Skype for the Web, execs said. And if users are signed into Skype for the Web, they now will receive notifications even if they're in another tab or app.
There's a new Cloud Connector Edition of Skype for Business Server coming in April. The Cloud Connector Edition will allow users to connect existing phone lines/number to Office 365 using optimized, preconfigured virtual machine images. In addition, Microsoft and conferencing equipment vendors also launched a new initiative, codenamed "Project Rigel" to bring the Skype Meeting experience that will be featured on Microsoft Surface Hubs, whenever they are finally available to any meeting room with a display or projector. Via Project Rigel, Windows 10 devices will be able to control Skype for Business online meetings and remotely connect users starting in the second half of 2016.
