AFT= A Fine Taxonomy, indeed.
SkypeGear has been around a couple of weeks now, but hasn't gotten the attention it deserves. Let's put a stop to that.
Unlike most of the other Skype-gear info on the Skype site- which suffers from some awful taxonomy problems and is often difficult to find without multiple clicks to deep links- SkypeGear is a treat.
Large illustrations, plain conversation without too much marcom, jargon or both.
Stephen Pinches (that's who he is, not what he does) appears to be the main writer.
