Skype has launched a business-specific platform which facilitatesconnections with potential customers, partners and suppliers. The
network is already said to have a community of 500 businesses, following
a six-month beta trial.
The release is based on the education-based Skype in the classroom,
released in June, which enables teachers and experts to share knowledge
and resources across Skype.
Membership to the service is free and can be integrated into users’
existing accounts.
