Bonus Skype Room Tips for New Skype Room Members

July 16th, 2008

This bonus post is for all members of my Skype rooms, Skype Tips, Message Magic ( a Skype Message Broadcasting plugin) and other Support & Training rooms of mine and my partners.  Many people are new to a “Skype Chat Room”. These Bonuses will help you learn how to manage your Skype when in Skype rooms.  How to avoid being distracted when others chat, how to close the room with out leaving so you can come back and read  later without missing anything, and how to search the room too or set notification for certain words, like your name, etc.
If I or my room hosts see you in the room on “Read Only” we hope you will find this Message Magic Support page on my blog to help you to get in the room and also to get the times we are meeting twice on  Tuesdays for Q & A, training & support with the owner Grant Andrews and also Relationship Marketing/Web 2.0/Social Marketing Training with Julie & her partners.


How To Get Chatting Rights in the Skype Rooms & More Support, Training & Bonuses …

Once you connect with me on Skype to get chatting rights in the room, just remind me to send you the Skype Room Tip Bonuses & Video. How? Again connect with me on Skype by using the + in green circle in a private Skype chat.

Skype Room Bonuses:

Bonus #1:
.

How to Close a Skype Chat Room Without Leaving - Business Networking Skype Tip

Skype Public Chat Rooms are open 24/7, so you will see messages in there around the clock. This is the beauty of these chat rooms. You will almost always find someone in there, and even while you are offline, the messages will stay, and you can read them when you go back on line. If you want to close the chat room, but remain a member in there, you must “close” it and not “leave” it. By clicking the X in the upper right hand corner, you will close it. If you want to leave the room permanently, you can do that by clicking the “exit door” with the man leaving the the room - a green square also in the upper right hand corner…next to the “door” click the text “leave”.

Bonus #2:
.

Three Skype Room Time Management Tips

When you are a member in many Skype Rooms, it can become very distracting when they flash in the bottom of your screen while you are trying to work. One is always tempted to read these as they come in, and it is also a “time waster” if you are busy working. There is a way to eliminate this, by changing your status to Do Not Disturb. Close any of the chats that you don’t want to read immediately, and they will not pop up. You will not loose the text in there, as they will be stored in your “events”. When you are ready to read what was posted in the rooms, open your main Skype window and you can click on the chat you want to read listed under “new events” with a red flag next to it.
Bonus #3:
.

Setting your Skype Notification Options Video

Bonus #4:
.

 Make Your Profile Personal to gain trust of new contacts:

Here are a few basic tips to remember….

First and foremost, as soon as you have installed Skype, you must set up your PROFILE. It is very important to give as much information you can about yourself and your business…. there is a 200 character limit - which includes spaces - for your text. You can add a link to your website or blog in the space provided. Bear in mind that this is the window to your business that you want to present to people who visit your profile. To get to your profile, go to your main Skype window, click on “File” then choose “Edit your Profile”.

Skype Name Suggestions

June 25th, 2008

In my opinion there is no choice - always use your own full name when you register for Skype, or any Social Networking Program. Whatever you intend using Skype for, the reason you downloaded and installed Skype on your computer was to enable you to connect with people. If you are in business, your aim should be to become KNOWN, LIKED AND TRUSTED. You need to brand yourself, and what better way than to let potential customers and joint venture partners know who you are.

It is an easy transition in building business relationships when you are open and willing to share their information. If you are not prepared to share who you are and what your interests are and what your business offers, how can you expect me to trust you.

Your Skype name is the first thing people see about you - even before they see your profile.

Skype 4.0 Beta Videos - Still a “Work in Progress”

June 24th, 2008

During my Skype Tips Webinar yesterday, we got a question about the new Skype version 4.0 Beta, ( changes, how it effects us room owners, etc.). So today I went to check out the download page at Skype and see that they are officially offering version 3.8 as the default download.

As the owner of a chat room for Skype Tips, I had to respond when I heard some talk about Beta Problems so I  found the Skype beta page that offers the  Skype 4.0 Beta for Windows, which says …

“It’s still all about free calls, free video calls and free IM to anyone else on Skype – anywhere in the world. Now we’ve redesigned it so it’s easier to start conversations and keep track of them – plus video calls look better than ever.”

“We’ve released this beta version a little earlier than usual because we’re really keen for people to try it out. It’s still a work in progress – but we’re so excited about it we can’t keep it to ourselves any longer.”

Welcome to the New Look of Skype 4.0

New Look for Skype Version 4.0 Beta

Skype Room Buzz

I read that the chat options are not in the menu. I haven’t tried it myself, but I believe Hyla has. We will ask her to do some screen shots for us to look at (risk free). Many say they stay away from Beta tests, too buggy, poor support. However for those brave ones who jump in and participate in the Beta Testing Improvements phase, please let Skype have your feedback.

Skype 4.0 Beta Videos

Here are some Skype videos about the 4.0 beta limited release. Josh Silverman & Mike Bartlett from Skype Offer a Video Briefing of Skype Beta 4.0 & Ask for Feedback

  1. Toward the end of the first video he says about the new video features, you feel like you are in the room with the person and “This version is far richer & far more engaging then anything you have seen to date.” He also says they are releasing this first version of 4.0 to a limited number of users as a way to begin communication with us, the Skype community. They say that they will take user feedback as they evolve this version until its ready to become the default download.
  2. Here is Mike Bartlett where he introduces Skype, and demos the new Skype 4.0 Beta for Windows.
  3. Here Mike Bartlett demonstrates the advanced features of Skype 4.0 Beta for Windows. I like the way you can mark missed events as unread and get to them later.

Larger Window to House More in One View.

I also read a complaint in a couple places about the window taking up the whole screen.  Read why here. There you will also read that it is possible to resize the window, although not down to the size of Skype 3.8.


Lets Talk

Has anyone else here got Skype 4.0 Beta for Windows? Lets talk about it here. Give your reply it helps us all.
