The tease of Skype: For those looking for nuggets on Skype (both the company and its products), download and install this latest beta of the Skype Toolbar for Internet Explorer . The instructions will tease you; the actual toolbar will get your wheels spinning for who's included! Enjoy!

The genius of Skype: Oh, and by the way, go to a web page with phone numbers (such as Canada 411) and, if you have a SkypeOut account, run your cursor over the phone number. Then go to this page (bypass the request to install the Japanese character set) and look at the number that results from running your cursor over the phone number. (Hint: what is the country code added to any of the phone numbers?)
