So what has the new Skype CEO been doing for the last 3 months.

On the 12th March 2008 I wrote this article regarding Josh Silverman Joining Skype as the new CEO. What you have to bear in mind here is the date 12th March 2008 because according to this article which is dated 9th June 2008, saying "This week will mark the first month on the job for Skype CEO Josh Silverman".

Note the time scale here, 4 months therefore if this is his first month on the job what has he been doing for the other 3 months I wonder. It would seem very little which I pointed out here and from the interview made on 9th June 2008 he has still done very little or even nothing it would seem.

Reading through the article the man seems to be a very good talker, and there is nothing wrong with that, but he is not talking about the problems that NEED to be fixed, all he keeps talking about is what we are going to be doing in 5 or 10 years time, great but lets get the current problems sorted out first otherwise there will be no 5 or 10 years time.

At the moment this seems to be purchasing Skype credit which is a very hit and miss affair. If you are lucky to get it right first time then thank your lucky start if not and you have your account blocked WITH credit showing on your account then you could be waiting a very long time for Skype to reactivate your account because of their sham of a payment system.
