I don't use Skype but it looks like a lot of members do, so I thought this was interesting.

Today on Fox news they had an interview with the two co-owners of Free wave Technoligies(Co. that owns Skype). These two guys started there Co. in 1993 with money from there credit cards and have shown a pofit every month since the fall of 1994. Today they announced that they would share 9million dollars of investment profits with there employees. By the picture that they showed it looked like they had less than 100 employees. I thought I would post this after reading the HARDTIMES section on the site. It made me feel good to see a couple of successful business owners taking care of the american worker :D :D :D .

It's great to see that "Free Wave Technoligies" made a profit and that they are using a profit sharing program with their employee's.

I hope more of the news channels will promote this good news, and give some balance to the news. :ymapplause:

Omigosh! I am soooo glad I just found these posts regarding Skype and Firefox! It was making me nuts that I couldn't just *see* the phone numbers and had to hover over them and then squint to see the tiny numbers! I've diabled the Skype add on and now all is well! Hooray! Score one more for the Cardinal RV Club team!

Thanks,

Karen

We've been using Skype this trip to keep in touch with family and friends, what a great tool.
