I like it a lot. My mom can see DS more often. I don't have a lot of Skype friends though.,...
Anyone else use Skype? ;D

I have, but my laptop is old so you can only hear me but not see me.

I have it on my iPad and love it! DH and I talk almost everyday when he is at work, video chat rocks! I also use it as our primary phone ;D Calling almost anywhere for $60 a year is a must!

Extensively for personal & work. Skype rocks my YM world. I remember when my AT&T long distance phone bill was $140 a month!!! Yah, I'm old.

It was part of the reason we got an iPad (I know we really only needed a webcam). Now we just need to get my parents set up on their iPad so we can actually use it. I'm pretty excited to use it for the holidays and since my parents won't be down to see the new baby for a couple weeks, I'm excited to use Skype in the hospital so that they can see her right away (which is why I wanted a tablet, so that we had the mobility to use it different places).

I don't use Skype but I use the Google video chat. It is a great way for my family to see my son. of course, not the same as seeing in person but it helps when they are thousands of miles away. And it is free!

I use it to talk to my sis. Also, when I've been away on a trip, I've used it to talk to DH rather than incur roaming charges on my cell phone. I also like Facetime and use that with friends who have it.

I skype my kids when I travel on business. Mostly they just like the IM feature because it has a million emoticons, and then they like to get really close to the camera so I can just see their eyeball, or their tonsils or something. But whatever. They aren't quite old enough to sit down at a precise time and have a formatting discussion about their day - so I'll take what I can get.

We use the iChat feature, or whatever it's called on the iPad and iPhone to chat when DH or I have to go somewhere for business.
I also get closeup views of my kids nostrils.

We use it whenever Husband and I are in different locations for more than 48 hours. We're also planning to make sure our parents are all familiar with it for when our child is born, since everyone lives in different states.
I love Skype. It made 6 months of long distance relationship bearable.
