Skype Down Again – Is Microsoft to Blame?

Skype has suffered another outage–its second service hiccup in about as many weeks. The timing of Skype’s issues seems somewhat coincidental since it follows in the wake of the announcement that Microsoft is buying Skype for $ 8.5 billion.

So, is Microsoft at fault for Skype’s woes? The short answer is “no”. At this point, the relationship between Microsoft and Skype amounts to a handshake and a press release announcing the proposed acquisition. But, the purchase has to get approval of the boards and shareholders on both sides, and pass regulatory hurdles before it will be official. It will be months before Microsoft actually has any day to day involvement in Skype operations.
