Did you know that when you do a video call on Skype the other person can take snapshot photos of you if they want to? I think Skype should allow you to either block that function or be notified and asked for permission when the person on the other line wants to take photo of you. The same should also apply when recording conversations.

Skype is currently free for a PC to PC call. What if a PC to a fixed line call was also made free and the cost of the calls was paid by ads?
Maybe it could work on a use-per-ad model, where the user makes a free call up to the amount collected for Skype 3.0 through the user clicking and viewing online ads.

When I log into Skype to talk to my girlfriend with whom we are in a long-distance relationship I see that another 12 million people are online and probably chatting or talking to each other. I read in an article yesterday that online communication has helped people maintain long-distance relationships more than in the past. So I always wonder, what percentage of the 12 million people talking for free on Skype are having phone sex? If the percentage is too high, I suggest we introduce a new verb in the English language to describe the activity: ' Phonycate' (read more)

You probably know you can make very cheap phone calls with Skype to landlines. Under a monthly subscription of about $12 you can make unlimited calls to more than 40 countries. SkypeShare is a cheating concept. Share the password to one account with a few others and make unlimited calls driving down the monthly subscription cost even further. To prevent abuse, Skype's fair use policy actually limits 'unlimited use' to 10,000 minutes per month with a maximum of 6 hours per day but still, the restrictions can allow for plenty of time to be shared among a few friends.

Not exactly bring him or her physically. Install touch screen monitors next to gym equipment that are wirelessly connected to the internet. Skype with your personal trainer to show you how to perform the exercises and encourage you to keep going. Good or famous instructors can charge you for their time. Or select from a free range of classes, tips and techniques made by other instructors.

Invisible mode or any other mode on Skype or Messenger, for example, means that all your contacts will see you in that mode. Why not create a new feature that will allow users to set the mode they want for each contact? For example, contacts John, Mary and Adams are set to 'invisible', contacts Frank and Kathy set to 'away' and contacts Jim and Tony set to 'available' etc. Such feature can be particularly helpful when managing a long list of contacts and you don't want to give the impression that you rarely log on to talk to people.

Use the electricity the panels generate to play videos, music and photo slideshows of your life on your grave. We live in an age where it's possible for everyone to own a video/photo recording device which means that during your lifetime you take endless hours of video not to mention skype calls with web cam and thousands, probably tens of thousands of photos which you watch once, maybe twice if you show it to your friends and then you either forget about them or delete them. That's ok, when technology makes it so easy to videotape your every day if you want to, we can't expect you to watch everything over and over. So why not play them on your grave for your friends and family after you are dead? Video tombstones have already been invented, someone needs to make them solar so that your decaying corpse is not the only environment-friendly part of your grave...

I think there's a certain 'body language' in text chat. It has to do with showing to the other person when you're typing something. In Skype you can deactivate that option but not in Yahoo Messenger. If you regularly chat with someone they develop a sense of how fast you type and think, therefore, someone can detect when you need time to think of something or whether you're re-typing/editing a text message.
