Reuters is reporting that MySpace and Skype are working together to offer MySpace members free Internet calling services, in a bid “to expand their base of users and revenue.”
The deal is set to be announced tomorrow.
The timing of this announcement is… well, interesting to say the least. Just this afternoon I heard rumors to the effect that Skype was working to make its voice services available to users of another social networking concern.
I’m not going to say which one, because I’m afraid someone might throw a sheep at me.
Nevertheless, the concept of converging VoIP with social networking is clearly happening. And if you ask me, it’s a good thing.
Stay tuned…
