Comparing Skype 5.x For Mac And Windows - Jim Courtney Makes Some Recommendations
April 12, 2011
What did Skype do right in Skype 5.x for Windows that they need to bring across over into Skype 5.x for Mac OS X?
That's essentially the question that Jim Courtney has taken on in two new posts building off his initial post I wrote about last week. He continues the series with:
- Skype for Mac 5: Returning to Ecstasy – Step 1 – Consistency
- Skype for Mac 5: Returning to Ecstasy – Step 2 – The Conversation Pane
No longer having any Windows machines in my life, I hadn't ever seen the Skype 5.x client for Windows so it was useful to see Jim's comparison. The "Compact View" he describes in Step 1 would go very far to addressing my greatest issue with Skype 5.x for Mac, namely the ability to have multiple chats open in separate Windows.
I applaud Jim for writing this series of articles and I do hope Skype is listening...
