Skype to Skype Calls After you set up your account at the Skype website, you can make voice calls to other Skype users, no matter where they are located. You also have conference call capability for up to 25 participants. 2. Skype Emoticons You can use Skype emoticons which are mood graphics. These are quick response images for indicating mood (happy, sad, angry), weather (sunny, rainy, snowy), drinks (martini, beer, coffee), and so forth.

If your friend is away from their computer and has call forwarding activated, you can reach them at no cost. 4. Conference Calls The conference call feature of Skype gives you the capability to start a conference call or invite others into a call in progress. This saves time when you have a message you need to communicate to several individuals. 5. Call Transfer Skype allows you to reroute an incoming call to another Skype user free of charge. If you have Skype credits, you can also transfer the call to a mobile phone anywhere in the world. 6.
