One caveat: to take advantage of group video calling and screen sharing, one or more call participants must have a Skype Premium subscription. Screen sharing is already available for free on a one-to-one Skype call, but the ability to share documents, photos, presentations and whatnot with multiple people in one session takes the product to a different level in my opinion, particularly for small businesses. With the new version, Skype for Mac users can not only do group video calls (which was already available in the beta product) but also share their screens during such calls. Skype 5.2 for Mac is available now and is much more worth the download than the 5.1 updated version of the beta Mac software released back in November 2010. Right on the heels of releasing Skype 5.5 for Windows, featuring deep Facebook integration, the company has just rolled out a new version of its voice and video calling software solution for Mac.
