Send Video Cards with Skype

By My status Nick Wright on December 17, 2008 in Campaigns and promotions.

Ever wanted to introduce people to using video on Skype? Missed the post and panicking about what to do last minute? Want to send something just a bit more personal this year to let friends and family know you’re thinking about them?

Now you can send your very own Video Cards with Skype.

But since seeing is believing in these matters, here’s a little demonstration from our very own Skype Santa:

Head over there now to send your own Video Card. Remember you can also link to your Video Card and embed it on your blog if you like.

We’ve also got a little surprise for those Facebook lovers out there. You can now try the application in the same way on Facebook. Just add the Video Cards with Skype Facebook app (you’ll need to login first) and you’ll be able to send the cards to all your Facebook friends instantly.

Hope you enjoy sending your Video Cards!

Happy holidays!

Tried it yesterday and today and while it records it just fine, it isn't sending it to anyone.

I am a new SKYPER and I would just like to thank SKYPE for "MAKING" our Xmas. We have been able to see and visit with our son in Iraq and our son-in-law in Afghanistan via SKYPE. It's fun to chat with our grandchildren also. grammy

@saundhaus sorry to hear you're having problems sending the cards - once you've recorded your greeting, the app should give you a link which you can email to your friends.

Hope that works for you :)
