Skype Tops the IM Charts Surpassing Windows Live Messenger

Originally posted on VoIP & Gadgets Blog, here: http://blog.tmcnet.com/blog/tom-keating/skype/skype-tops-the-im-charts-surpassing-windows-live-messenger.asp.


According to the Skype blog, new data released by the exo.performance.network shows that Skype (News - Alert) has eclipsed Windows Live Messenger as the #1 IM application. Skype just squeaked by with 17% vs. 16.7% for Windows Live Messenger.

Nicely done Skype! I just hope the end is not near.
