I’ve been using Skype a lot recently for work and while the service itself is pretty neat I’m bugged by a few things:

1. The ringtone noise it makes while dialing sounds dumb
2. When I’m using it on my phone, there’s no good way to hold it that doesn’t exclusively show my forehead to whoever I’m speaking to
3. Calls seem to not connect as a matter of routine
4. Calls seem to drop as a matter of routine
5. Every time I go to close the program it tells me that I won’t be able to make Skype calls

…

…I know that I won’t be able to make Skype calls.  As a matter of fact, that’s precisely why I’m closing Skype in the first place.

Now, I’m sure there’s a way to disable that message, but at this point I almost enjoy the reminder that if I close Skype, I won’t be able to use Skype.

Thanks, Skype!
