Skype Boasts 40 Million Concurrent User Logins

Skype has announced that over 40 million users signed into its voice over IP and chatting service simultaneously on Tuesday.

Microsoft's subsidiary company obviously wanted to brag about reaching this milestone when it said, “This is a massive new milestone for a simple piece of software that helps make meaningful connections - a cool part of people’s lives every single day. Thanks to Skype you can make audio and video calls, send SMS and instant messages, get voicemails or share files with anyone anywhere on Skype quickly and easily at low to no cost.”

Earlier this year, the company rolled out a beta version of its VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) and chatting app for Windows Phone, with the final version expected to arrive by the end of April.
