Show Step by Step How to Install the Software
Skype is desktop software for making telephone calls through your computer. With more than 170,000 users, this software has been downloaded hundreds of thousands of times. Must be lots to learn here!
But the homepage really doesn’t give a very clear idea what Skype is. They did have a compelling homepage but that’s been put aside as they roll out more and more services. On top of that, it takes at least three clicks to download the software.
It’s not all bad though. Right from the homepage, the site offers you a dowload for your specific operating system. We spoke about this already in relation to Firefox and Dropsend. But when you actually download the software, they also display specific instructions on how to install it on your platform.
An excellent idea for software aimed at a mainstream audience. In fact for any software company that wants major adoption of its downloadable software.
Have you come across anyone else doing this?
