Yes, in fact, you can add people to a conference. Just press the Add button and then interact with the table of contacts or else type a contact's name, When found, press return twice. That'll do it. Sincerely, The Constantly Barefooted Ray!!! Now a very proud and happy Mac user!!! Skype nam

A conference stays active for as long as people are in it. WIth the way Skype is structured, it's very easy to just stay in a conference. You don't have to close the conversation WIndows, and you'll be notified of new events. One thing you can do to make sure you always know where that conferenc

Hello. Thanks for your informative message. It certainly helped me a lot to understand how Skype conferencing works. Is it possible to set Skype up so there is some kind of permanent conference in place, and a number of people to be able to add themselves automatically there? Thanks. Nektarios

Hi Rose, I think there's a reason why we've been seeing a lot of posts about the way Skype 5 works recently, including the thread Mike Busboom started about accessing the camera. A lot of people really don't like the new version. Here's a link to the recent article at TidBITS: "Skype 5 for Ma
