Microsoft has rolled out a major update to Skype for Android today, introducing a brand new user interface focused on quality and performance. The update aims to establish a “common set of experiences across multiple platforms,” and it comes as Skype celebrates 100 million mobile installs worldwide.

Skype has announced that it will be taking its new video messaging feature out of its “preview” phase and making it a permanent fixture inside its Android, iOS, BlackBerry, and desktop clients as of today. The feature will be available to all users with a Skype free or premium account.

If you enjoy instant messaging people over the internet, I’m sure you have a large amount of messaging accounts, for multiple messaging services. Wouldn’t it be easier to have one place to message all of your contacts from, with all of your accounts merged into one? Well, imo has your back.

Viber, the popular cross-platform messaging service for smartphones, is no longer just for smartphones. The company has today launched new desktop applications that allow you to chat with friends; send stickers, emoticons, and photos; and make calls from a Mac or PC.

Facebook has begun rolling out its free voice calling feature to Facebook Messenger users in the United Kingdom, just days after the service landed in the U.K. on the iPhone. You won’t need to update the Facebook Messenger app; the feature will be added quietly in the background.
