Optimising your web pages for Skype
The [Skype web toolbars](http://www.skype.com/products/skypewebtoolbar/) just keep getting better. Here’s a tip you might not know: you can [optimise your pages](http://www.skype.com/products/skypewebtoolbar/optimise.html) to display cool call buttons for phone numbers.
> Here are some other reasons to optimise your pages: numbers will display in the local format but be dialled internationally (if required); the toolbar will recognise numbers up to 7 times faster in IE; proper names — rather than unrecognisable phone numbers — will be displayed in ‘tool tips’.
Using this is easy — when you’re displaying a phone number on your page, you just insert some invisible metadata with the number. [This page](http://www.skype.com/products/skypewebtoolbar/optimise.html) has all the details you need.
Here’s how they look if you search for “wombat” in the UK.
when in OPERA ???
This is the BEST web browser!!
Toolbar !?!?! Who the hell is going to install that?!?! Give us Javascript or something that does not require installation!!!
yeah, opera, mozilla, safari – any idea when this toolbar program will be available for use on these browsers? IE is dead.
Meanwhile…
Linux users are still waiting, for about six months now, for a bug correction concerning sound.
TENHO CREDITOS E NÃO CONSIGO LIGAR PRO BRASIL…NÃO ESTOU GOSTANDO DISSO…….
COMO EU FAÇO JÁ ESTOU PERDENDO MINHA PACIENCIA…….
I guess skype will be more exciting if sms service available for people who are willing to pay for it
Web Toolbar for Firefox can be downloaded from here: http://www.skype.com/products/skypewebtoolbar/firefox.html Please note that it’s currently in beta.

Of course the Firefox toolbar was Windows only last time I checked. Has it ever been made cross platform?
I have two friends who were trying to use Skype (in both cases, PCs w/ XP version 2) and get hung up while logging in. I couldn’t find anything anywhere online about this. Since it seems very common and is preventing lots of folks from using Skype, I’m surprised that no one is addressing this in the skype troubleshooting area
Yes When will this be available for OPERA?!
Opera is the best browser out there, that nobody knows about!
This would be a tremendously effective tool for many of us.
I see that toolbars were developed for that other XxxxFox browser,
Please take the same time to do this for Opera, it will pay off.
