Skype has released a new version for Windows users and this version has introduced a big update for the Facebook tab.
The idea behind the Facebook tab is to bring your news feed into Skype and let you perform a number of functions with it, such as:
- View your friends posts and comment on them or like them.
- See where your friends are checking into on Facebook Places
- Give your friends a call directly from the tab. Cool thing is that if your friend is also using the tab, you’ll be able to call them for free, Skype 2 Skype style.
Another addition to the tab is the increased access speed as well as the interface change to allow for more information to be displayed in the same window as before.
Please note that if you are on Windows and can’t see the update, it’s probably because you need to update your version. You can do this by clicking here: http://www.skype.com/intl/en/get-skype/on-your-computer/windows/?cm_mmc=PXBL%7C0700_B6-_-facebooktiles-20110419
