Its finally that time. The time Live Messenger is phased out for Skype. If you are a Live Messenger user, here is a tutorual put together by Microsoft to help you make the transition with ease.

Not too long ago, we learned that Microsoft had plans to retire Windows Live Messenger in favor of Skype. Microsoft officially announced back in November of 2012 that Windows Live Messenger and Skype would become one and revealed that beginning April 8th of this year, the transition from Messenger to Skype would begin.

Microsoft’s main goal with Skype is to provide the best communications experience for everyone and making things simple for users while improving overall experience. Check out the tutorial below and get started with Skype!

Radu Tyrsina has been a Windows fan ever since he got his first PC, a Pentium III (a monster at that time).

For most of the kids of his age, the Internet was an amazing way to play and communicate with others, but he was deeply impressed by the flow of information and how easily you can find anything on the web.

Prior to founding Windows Report, this particular curiosity about digital content enabled him to grow a number of sites that helped hundreds of millions reach faster the answer they’re looking for.
