The Dog Skyper
By
Jaanus on June 17, 2005 in Skype around the world.
There's an amazing variety of [photos on Flickr on Skype](http://www.flickr.com/photos/tags/skype/). Here's [a recent one](http://www.flickr.com/photos/gjw1/19729681/). Would have called him (her? it?) to do an interview but the Skype Name doesn't seem to have been published. For the dogs running around our office (more on them some other time), a gadget idea we've been having is a portable wifi (Pocket PC?) Skype kit attached to them.

The perfect Skype mascot. Does he use Presence when he's not online or eating?

Many people using skype will be users of firefox, surely a toolbar needs to be developed, lateral thinking a net savvy product such as firefox would breed the popularity of skype

Yes I agree. I use Firefox. I would appreciate the development of a Firefox-PlugIn.

Agree as well, need firefox support.

I'm using Opera.
I can "spek" to Opera, that can recognize my commands.
I think it would be a greater thing that I could use Skype as an Opera bar.

I was going to make the Mozilla point but it has already been well done. This is therefore just reinforcement for those interested in this development!

Ditto on a Firefox toolbar... Without one, Mac users are pretty much left out

I also support the comment on Mozilla firefox. Could you give us your thoughts

Works very fine except for one thing - my SkypeIn doesnt work. Phone rings until answeringmachine answers(call made from my ordinary phone at home). But no ringing in my PC (XP professional). I also use a Olympia cordless dualphone specially designed to use with Skype. If I download newest version of Skype it wount work.

The skyfox devlopment is very excellent idea, the only thing it lacks is the use of underlining to enable automatic skype calls to be made. this a very strong feature and would surely expand the user base of skype.
Ddvelopment of firefox is a very open ended setup so i am sure the coding people at skype(ebay) it should be no probs. Hoping we some movement on this issue.
Cheers

Parabéns pelo esforço no desenvolvimento deste plugin, mas todos aqui na empresa usamos o fire-fox, portanto nós e os demais 18.000.000 de usuários no resto do planeta gostaríamos que recebecemos também a atenção dada aos usuários do RUinternet explorer
