Skype for Outlook.com is now fully available in the United Kingdom, Germany, Brazil, France, Canada and the United States.
Outlook.com, which already allows Outlook users to connect with Facebook, Skype, and Google friends, now allows users to make Skype video calls directly from inside Outlook.com.
With Microsoft also making Skype part of the Windows operating system, we now have reached a point where users might just expect to be able to communicate using voice, video and text, from inside their mail apps and when using Windows PC devices.
That trend has been developing for years, with communications becoming part of other apps, and over the top messaging apps proliferating.
But such capabilities also illustrate why communications service providers are so intent on creating new revenue streams. They have to.
