Skype has launched version 1.1 of its internet phone application for Windows: "Skype launches v1.1 for Windows and introduces the new Chat feature ...
"... allowing Skype users to hold multi-person or forum-style conversations with groups of people. Chat expands the existing one-to-one chatting and other instant message features in previous versions of Skype, and allows groups of up to 50 to communicate."
Skype says additional new features in this version include improved contact list management and presentation, new mini avatars alongside highlighted contacts and new tray alerts that help users monitor their contacts and messaging.
Skype is also available on Mac OS X, Linux and PocketPC, although the new features now available are only in the Windows version.
See the Skype download page for choices.
