    I was a big user of MSN back in the day, but now we have things like facebook I just dont see a need for it.

    We use it in work mate and because a lot of us would be lost without it. Skype for business that is I should add. Very good product although we also have our own which is gaining momentum

    Seems to have a different role than MSN. I use it to call my mates who are working abroad and almost all customers I have migrated to Office 365 use Skype for Business.

    Going to start a trial of Skype for buisiness using our current telephone system. Should be cool as the licenses are cheap as chips for education.

    Constantly mate. SfB is a life line for me as all my colleagues are based in Leeds and I am in London.
    I use Skype a lot at home. I am a member of a couple of study groups and we are always in contact. My in-laws are in New Zealand as well so we use it to keep in contact with them and when we are over there, keep in contact back home.
