We all know that Microsoft picked up Skype for a cool $8.5 billion in May earlier this year, with boards of directors from both Microsoft and Skype having approved the acquisition previously. Well, not much was heard concerning this merger since then, but at least Microsoft has stepped forward at long last to welcome Skype to their fold in an official manner. Basically, Skype is now part of Microsoft, with Skype CEO Tony Bates taking over the title of president of the Skype Division of Microsoft – at least that is what Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer says.
Ubergizmo, Microsoft welcomes Skype officially
