Ads in Skype

"Hi Renegade! You coming to practice at Joe's Bowling before 6PM to take advantage of the Early Bird String for only $2? That other soft drink machine is down so let's get a nice cold delicious Pepsi Next, because it only has 10 grams of sugar but the same Pepsi taste! "
Oh wait - that's the Truman Show.

Meanwhile on the mobile version of skype, are there still ads? (IS there a mobile version?) Because Mobile is getting nasty bandwidth caps, and ads are getting big and bulky lately.

I forget what I was using and when, but I've seen mobile video ads. WTF?!? I don't really use my phone much at all anymore now that I have a tablet, so I don't know if they're more popular now or what.
Give 'em a new toy and watch 'em abuse it... sigh... :-\

Just wait until they start analysing the audio content of your conversation and then start interrupting with their synthesised audio ads; you know that's got to be on the drawing board.

Audio analysis is already being done. It's just a matter of time before it's monetized. At the moment it's only to snoop on you. :)
