Dear god. Next up: Microsoft Outlook, but with Stories!

@bluerssen Excel...but with Stories

@bluerssen Wordperfect, now with stories!

I truly don't understand why people still concern about Stories. It's a normal feature now :))

Skype calls with overseas suppliers will never be the same

I've always used Skype as a professional tool, to video chat with teammates and external folks for work. This refresh feels a LOT more fun and social. TechCrunch's @sarahintampa makes note of the Snapchat-like stories. 😉

@rrhoover @sarahintampa Same here, I can't imagine anyone I have on Skype using stories!
Thanasis
@rrhoover Skype stories would be the funniest thing ever or the saddest thing ever!

@jevinsew @rrhoover @sarahintampa At one point, large businesses said this about Facebook. Then small businesses. Then my Dad. We all know how that ended.
Jevin Sew
@kevinsuttle you do have a point there.

Yikes, wrong market for Skype. I feel it's way too late for skype to enter the personal social market, and this will hurt its appearance as a professional tool.

@alexwhitedev I think most people here are missing the long term outlook of this update. This is Microsoft gunning for Slack, not necessarily FB or Snapchat. MS didn't buy slack for $8B couple years ago because Bill and Satya thought they could rebrand Skype to become their Slack competitor.
Alex White
@sasha_lah Yeah but the problem is Slack is a professional tool. Stories, gradients, animated reactions are not going to help them take on slack. Most people already consider Skype the tool that you have to use but would much rather be using something else, they have a lot of work if they hope to recapture their audience.

@sasha_lah @alexwhitedev There may be some truth to this analysis, but it completely ignores Microsoft Teams...
Alex White
@josiahtullis oh huh, I had never heard of Microsoft Teams before...

Gradients, Gradients everywhere!

Hard to imagine anyone using Skype again after the NSA backdoor revelations in 2009- unsure of the current status of those exploits, but I hope Slack and encrypted services like Signal are eating their lunch.
Chris Messina
@thom_ivy I'm not sure most users care...? Or remember?
Guillaume Flandre
No. More. Stories. Please.
Mohit
@gflandre They never listen to their users, like us :D
