As I mentioned earlier , Skype launched a preview version of Group Video calling today. You can download the beta version here. Using the new client users can make group video call with upto 5 people. The new client is only available for Windows. So the people you are calling should also need to be running the same version of client. Sorry Mac folks, it sucks. (I just bought my new Mac last week. It’s awesome and very sleek)
The beta version of Group Video calling is free. However, Skype is not gone give this premium feature for free in future. So go head and download the client and enjoy the Group Video calling before Skype starts charging for the service. I’m not sure if consumers are gone pay for the service. Maybe enterprise would.
The below statement confirms Skype’s intention to charge the feature:
Group video calling is just one in a set of new premium features you’ll see us roll out during 2010. We haven’t set prices for these premium features yet, but rest assured that we’re still absolutely committed to bringing you free voice and two-way video calling.

VoIP services and applications like Skype offers are essential in telecommunication and call center companies. This is really a great application. Thanks for sharing this info.
Skype has offered great telecommunication tools that are very helpful and convenient for both individual consumers and corporate clients who have offshore activities and who need constant contact with their clients.
