Despite the strong competition from the numerous apps that allow you to send messages and make free calls from any PC or smartphone, Microsoft's Skype still maintains a certain popularity, not only because it is now included in every Windows installation, but also because it works very well. The latest welcome news regarding Skype is the possibility of being able to use it to chat, make calls and receive calls even without registering with an account, directly, without downloading any application.
So if we need to call someone via Skype, start a video call, a simple chat or a file transfer, it is no longer necessary to create a Microsoft account, you can simply open the Skype website and share the link generated with the other person, without having to log in, register or register .
This free Skype service can also be used for group chats of up to 300 people and also video conferences or phone calls of up to 25 people together.
For now, to use Skype without an account (therefore as a guest), you need to use a web browser (such as Chrome or Firefox) from a computer (for now it does not work on smartphones and tablets) and connect to the Skype Online site
Then open the Skype.com website, press the Start a conversation button and write any name.
In the next screen, a link of the type //join.skype.com/4EUStvcdaUP6 appears and a button on the right with Copy Link written.
Click on this button to copy the link and share it with all the people you want to join the conversation.
This link can be pasted in an email or via SMS or even through other means such as Facebook.
As mentioned above, you can invite up to 300 people to join the chat and up to 25 people to start a video or voice call .
The link is valid only for 24 hours, therefore after this time no more participants can be invited and the chat will be closed.
Those who are invited to the Skype chat can also participate without having to log in to their account or register a new one.
This way of creating group conversations and chats is particularly useful for those who want to communicate with a family member who does not have the skills to create an account on their own, for those who want to use Skype without showing their name or anonymously and also for those who he often uses public computers and does not want to use his private account on a PC not his own.
