"Conversation. What is it? A Mystery! It's the art of never seeming bored, of touching everything with interest, of pleasing with trifles, of being fascinating with nothing at all. How do we define this lively darting about with words, of hitting them back and forth, this sort of brief smile of ideas which should be conversation?" ~ Guy de Maupassant ~

Skype applications

I spent a whole lot of time today in trying to contact Dell support to help me fix a bug in my PC.  I had to hold on for over 40 minutes before a customer service person actually took my call - and then another 10 minutes or so before i was re-directed to the right person for help.  Made me think of business opportunities around Skype - how easy it would be if they had a 'skype me' support line - i could just buzz them with a skype me request to call - and they could get back to me when i'm online.  So neat if vendors of software and support centers could build this into their systems.

This sounds like fun - Stuart and Phil are organizing dinner tonight (breakfast hour here) to brainstorm and discuss opportunities around Skype.
