Strange realization: I am relieved that Microsoft bought this, and not Facebook. Can't remember the last time I was relieved that Microsoft bought a company.

That's really strange. Not being a fan of either, I'd bet Facebook knows a bit more about Internet than Microsoft.

Though in the end both are just money making machines with unethical practices. In either case you can expect Skype to become less geek-friendly and more like a surprise box with an evil clown inside.

Given Microsoft's investment in Facebook in 2007 (http://www.nytimes.com/2007/10/25/technology/25facebook.html), can we expect a Skype for Facebook or some other sort of integration?
