More features added to Skype-for-Web

skypelogoSome news from the Skype stable. This Internet telephony service has added more features.

Users can now call mobile phones & landlines using Skype in a desktop browser, without needing a plug-in. Support for marking phone calls through a browser has been added to Skype Web, a web-based counterpart of the native Skype app, along with several other new features.

Other add-ons include the web app providing an in-line preview image of any YouTube URL pasted into the conversation. Moreover, you can watch YouTube clips directly in Skype for Web & take advantage of all the same volume & full-screen controls you have in YouTube.

Here’s what the official announcement on the blog says:

We’ve updated Skype for Web so you can now save money on your phone calls to mobile phones and landlines. All you need is a little Skype credit or a subscription to start making affordable international calls from Skype. Once you’ve signed in to Skype for Web, simply click on the call phones tab, select your destination, dial the number you’d like to call and then hit the call button.
