Skype is quickly becoming the go-to term for an internet call much the way people use the term Google for doing an internet search. Microsoft is apparently well aware of Skype’s value, having purchased the company this morning for a sum of 8.5 billion USD. They plan to extend Skype support to the Xbox 360 and Kinect, Windows Phone 7 devices, and other unnamed devices.

Hit the jump to see the full press release.
