The company has been more recently working on ways to allow anyone to join a Skype chat, even if they don’t have an account. This will make using Skype feel more like a part of the service you’re already using, as opposed to some standalone product – but it could also help Skype acquire more users, too. This includes, Office Online, and OneDrive, all of which, along with Skype for Web, will now support real-time, plugin-free voice, video and group calling when you’re using Microsoft Edge. Skype for Web, the browser-based version of the online communications software rolled out publicly last year, will benefit from the new functionality, as will other online properties where Skype is supported, Microsoft says. Other browsers, including IE, Chrome, Firefox and Safari, will continue to require plugins as before.
But before you get too excited, be aware that this new experience only works in Microsoft Edge for now.
Microsoft is making Skype in the browser plugin-free, the company announced this morning.
