Skypes Grows Bigger Than MySpace
kype’s flown past MySpace. But both cases are even more confirmation that “free” rules cyber space.Skype, which all but gives away long distance across the globe, reports it has 113 million users worldwide, while MySpace, a social networking site, celebrated its 100 millionth registered user on Aug. 8 (during the News Corp. (nyse: NWS – news – people ) annual earnings call, as if on cue).Both these companies exploded out of nowhere less than three years ago, and both are in the top 10 most trafficked sites, behind Yahoo! (nasdaq: YHOO – news – people ), Time-Warner (nyse: TWX – news – people ) Network (AOL), Microsoft (nasdaq: MSFT – news – people ) and Google (nasdaq: GOOG – news – people ). (Skype is included with eBay (nasdaq: EBAY – news – people ).)
