Users of Skype may have to go yet another day without their trusted client for calling across continents and seamless chat-messaging for a few hours today.

This is attributed to a failure in the overall Skype system that has disabled logging in and consequently inhibited communication between users all over the World.

An Official message from the official Skype twitter account said “A small number of you may have problems signing in to Skype. We’re investigating the cause, and hope to have more details to share soon.” at 1400 HRS EastAfrican Time today 7^th June 2011.

More details coming.

Users of Skype today 26^th May 2011 experienced an unfamiliar phenomenon when Skype crashed on their computers and all attempts to re-launch the application failed miserably allowing the user to login only to crash again and again.

Users have been ranting on twitter for the past 2 hours since the crashes became more rampant.

This comes amid recent news that Microsoft bought out the company for 8.5Million US dollars earlier this month.

Some say this is what is in store for Skype users henceforth but we can only wait and see the outcome.

Speculation drives to conclusion that someone is trying to scare the masses by failing an application that many have come to enjoy as free and bug-free in most instances.

Some even joked that the crash came as a sign that Skype is now officially a Microsoft product. (low blow)

Keep it juuchini for updates.
