Since Microsoft bought Skype, I've been thinking that they'll eventually
abandon the Linux Skype client, and it will stop working.  So I'll probably
*have* to use google video or another video-chat client, not skype, at some
point in the future.  I usually video chat with people pretty infrequently,
only about 3 or 4 times per year though.
