What happens with the Skype numbers
What happens with the Skype numbers
I am quite worried for my main data sources related to my blog. Skype provides through an RSS-feed �real time� data concerning �Users Online Now� and �Total Skype Downloads�.
Well, some months ago the �Users Online Now� stopped working (it shows 0 users online) and since Tuesday afternoon (somewhere around 13h30 GMT) the cumulative counter of Skype downloads got stuck on 1,168,075,188 downloads.
Downloading isn�t impaired (i tried and succeeded to download), therefore the counter is �broken�. I hope this is a temporary problem, because my blog lives from those numbers.
Anyway, the most important number, being the �Users Online Now� or �People Online� as it is called in the Skype Client is still available through the Skype Client itself in the "Skype Contacts" tab.
