Skype Is Now Giving Nimbuzz The Boot

Oh great, Skype is flexing it’s little pasty arm again.  After this summers ordeal with Skype banning Fring for “breach of its API terms” it’s doing the same again with Nimbuzz now.  It was inevitable but still disappointing.  Skype is heading toward an IPO so it seems as if it’s tying up any loose ends but truth [...]
