In the image above you can see what the screen looks like welcome of Skype on the web beta, giving us information about the actions we can take through the service directly from the computer browser used to access it.
Skype on the web beta offers us the possibility to initiate or receive phone calls, video calls or have text conversations with any of our contacts, all without installing the dedicated application for various platforms.
Basically, through Skype on the web beta, the Microsoft company offers us the opportunity to access the Skype service from anywhere, even if the computer we are using does not have the dedicated application and it cannot be installed on it at that moment.
To make voice or video calls, Skype on the web beta requires the installation of a special plugin, the Microsoft company displaying an alert in the browser interface notifying us about the obligation of its existence to benefit from the functionality.
Although Microsoft says that not all browsers are compatible with Skype on the web beta service, most of the modern ones should be compatible at the moment, so you shouldn't have any problems using it.
At the moment you can use Skype on the web beta accessing this website, and there you will have to log in with your Skype account to get access to the interface, which is similar to that of the native application for Windows or OS X.
