Skype heading for the blogosphere (rest of web may join too)

Skype 3.0 is in beta 3, and with that it adds functionality that is bound to hit the blogosphere. You’€™ll be able to click to call, via a link on your website. A great way to spread the Skype brand, no doubt. Already you’€™ll find most prominent bloggers having a Skype account for you to bother, posted on their blogs, so this is a natural step.

Other news include Skypecast to handle up to 100 users in a huge, moderated conference call. A IRC like text chat is apparently also added.

Ars Technica has more. I’€™ll download it when it’€™s officially released since I use Skype for, well, everything phone-like. (Yeah, almost wrote ‘€œphony’€? there, sorry.)
