Skype and openBC announce cooperation
By

We are now working with [openBC](http://www.openbc.com). (See below for a giveaway to celebrate the occasion.) They are an online networking platform for professional and secure contact management. Read what openBC says about this in their blog. As they also say there, they initially had plans to make their own communications client, but now Skype has worked out to be a better solution for them.
OpenBC actually had the Skype profile integrated already a while ago. If you sign up for their site, you can set who sees and can interact with your Skype Name. So if you find someone interesting to add to your OpenBC network. you can talk to them on Skype straight away.
Hey, here's a giveaway. They offer one month's worth of free premium membership to anyone who signs up through share.skype.com. Just go to this link: [http://www.openbc.com/premium-skype05](http://www.openbc.com/premium-skype05) and sign up. After the free trial you can either opt to become a paying member or you can stay a free member. Thanks, OpenBC.

This is excellent news for the online networking industry the more sites integrate with skype the better for their community to connect, meet and trade.

@mikegiroux:
Have a look at http://forum.skype.com, there is plenty of answers to your question - basically it's just plug & play
