[Skype 2.0 for Mac][1] has just been released. The upgrade features support for video calls no matter what kind of computer the call is made to (previously Skype for Mac video calls only worked on calls to other Mac users). The upgrade requires a Mac G4 or better and is a universal binary. 

In other Skype-related news, there's a new site, [Anothr][2], that allows you to get RSS feeds delivered via your Skype account. I was impressed with the idea until I ran across this tidbit in the company's blog: "Skype is not only a cool voice-over-IP tool, but also a perfect P2P application platform with high security."

If anyone out there thinks the VOIP protocol has "high security," contact me for some important real estate listings you don't want to miss.
