By the way, I seem to be getting an increasing number of spam calls on Skype, so i don't think that telespamming will go away.

Its an opportunity as well as a threat.

By the way, I seem to be getting an increasing number of spam calls on Skype, so i don’t think that telespamming will go away.

Voice is just another way of communications. So if I manage most of my communications on a social network. Why not throw in voice? Here at the Flat Planet Phone Company we enable the fast deployment of voice applications. It is interesting to note that we have seen recently a number of inquiries from social networks looking to add voice applications. As time goes on, it will be a default component of all networks. I hope though, that Skype will not be the enabler. Communications should be open and as long as Skype does not use SIP, it is not a candidate in my mind Mike,
