Peter Parkes has a breakdown of the new Skype 2.8 Beta for Mac over on the Skype Blog. In addition to linking to the download, Peter goes in-depth on two key features included in this rev that are currently unavailable on the Windows edition: Skype Access and Screen Sharing.

I’m also really enjoying the blog posts over at the Skype Journal about the news. The book-end blog posts “Skype Throws Independent Developers Under the Bus to pursue WebEx Market” and “Skype has NOT Thrown Independent Developers Under the Bus” by Phil Wolff and Jim Courtney respectively, make for great point/counterpoint reading.

Skype Journal’s review of Skype 2.8 Beta for Mac can be read HERE.

The Skype press release is HERE.
