I first came into contact with Skype in September 2003 and this is the 75th Skype-related entry. Way back then they talked about ways to make money and how certain future features would cost money. They now have over 105 million downloads and today I was happy to do a little business with them. Yes, I just decided that 30 euros a year ($39 USD and some change) was worth it for a SkypeIN account with voicemail.

Looking through my contact list I see roughly 5% of the people have SkypeIN activated. Now my voicemail is set too … hmm, wonder who will leave me the first (non-family member ) voicemail? (253) 843-6283.

Update: Forgot to mention, they are accepting Visa and MC now, not just PayPal only. A week ago when I checked it was only PayPal and Moneybookers.
