Skype hardly has a history of keeping its forthcoming features secret, but then again, surprises aren’t all they’re chalked up to be. This go ’round, an updated terms of service page has outed a heretofore unannounced update: Video Messaging. While it’s not possible to indulge just yet, we’re left to assume that an impending update will enable Skype Premium users (who pay $8.99 per month for certain privileges) to “send and receive an unlimited number of Video Messages.” For those taking advantage of Skype’s free offerings, you’ll be able to send a “limited” amount, though you’ll be able to receive an unlimited quantity of ’em. We’re also told that non-premium members will see their video messages expire within 90 days — unless it was sent by a premium member or you upgrade your account in time, of course — but the TOS makes no mention of when any of this will find itself under public scrutiny. Hopefully it’ll be before those year-end fireworks go up, you know?
