Tech it away

摘要

Microsoft retired its much-loved Messenger service earlier in the year and integrated it into Skype (which it bought in 2011). If you still like the Messenger interface you can buy an independently made network-friendly version called Outlook Messenger (from £60 plus licences). You're best just sticking with Skype's system, though. It offers not only video and voice protocol, but also smartphone integration and other handy office functions such as file-sharing, screen-sharing (so you can show the person you're talking to your work or IT problem) and SMS.
