What is Skype?

Skype is a software that enables you to talk to peolple through a mic. It is a free downloadable software and is easy to use. Most people use it for gaming purposes, as it is very easy to communicate to others without typing too much.

Advantages of Skype:
- It is quick and easy.
- Easy to communicate with friends and people.
- Free
- You can tell if people are being sarcastic or not by their tone.

Disadvantages of Skype:
- There is a risk of cyber bullying.
- There is a small risk that you may get hacked. (One of my friends got hacked via skype during a game. He lost all of his items and valuables (Only skype people who you know))!
- While gaming and skyping at the same time, there may be lag while you play your game.

I myself use skype for Minecraft and League of Legends. I use it because it is efficient to communicate with people as I said above.

The only reason as to why I can think people get hacked via skype is because of screen sharing. When you skype some, you have the option to screen share, which means you share your screen with the person your talking to. They can see everything on your screen that you can see. So only share screens with people who you can completely trust with!
