Introducing the "About Skype" site

By My status Jaanus on June 2, 2006 in Sharing tools news.

We have something nice to tell you

We have a new site -- [About Skype](http://about.skype.com). You can also access it as [press.skype.com](http://press.skype.com) It's effectively the "Company" section of our site revamped, the publishing mechanisms brushed up quite a bit and tons of new info added, such as the updated [Executive Team](http://about.skype.com/executiveteam.html), new [product overview](http://about.skype.com/product.html) and lots more. It's the site where you want to go when you're a journalist or someone else and looking for quick, concise and to-the-point info about Skype, including the latest news releases. Formerly we were not so good at quickly publishing our releases at our own site, and there was no simple mechanism such as an RSS feed to keep up with them. There is now, so you can [head over to the site](http://about.skype.com) or [subscribe to the feed right away](http://feeds.feedburner.com/AboutSkype). You may still see links to the old "About" and news sections on some parts of our site, but we'll be redirecting these to the new site shortly.

One thing we have chosen to do is to not enable comments on the "About" site on news releases. This is because we want to keep it clean and concise. If you want to talk back to us, there are lots of other channels you can use, such as the [forums](http://forum.skype.com), our [customer service](http://support.skype.com) or this Share Skype blog. We do have [trackbacks](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trackback) enabled, however, so if you are re-publishing and commenting the news on your site, feel free to track back to us and those links will also show up on the site.
