34 h. ago Skype shutdown surfaces sweet memories: ‘I proposed marriage’

Guardian readers share how the software connected them with loved ones when there were few affordable means to reach those for awayMicrosoft announced on the last day of February that it would sunset Skype. By the time the death knell tolled, the video chatting software that once revolutionized communications had become a ghost of its former self. Experts chimed in with half-hearted eulogies for the platform that Microsoft spent years neglecting, yet few were surprised, and even fewer shed tears.“The fact that Skype was never integrated into any other Microsoft platform, nor redesigned to resemble other Microsoft solutions or included in any bundled commercial offerings – despite its loss of users – was a clear indication that Microsoft had long decided to discontinue the service,” said Gianvito Lanzolla, a professor of strategy, at University of London.

5 d. ago Thuram and Martínez quell Feyenoord’s fire as Inter give Van Persie harsh lesson

Robin van Persie may have found that, for this year at least, fairytales have their limits. Only 10 days have passed since he was tasked with leading the club that forged him and it was a delicious twist of fate that Inter, contributors to a formative moment in his playing career, posed his first Champions League test. This proved a harsh introduction to the sharper end of management and it will be a shock for the ages if a depleted Feyenoord, willing but callow, can turn around a two-goal deficit at San Siro next week.Inter simply weathered an early storm and, summoning the poise and wisdom that so often helps Serie A sides dismiss irritating arrivistes, brought their potent strike force to bear. Marcus Thuram and Lautaro Martínez finished clinically either side of half-time and at this point it would be a stretch to claim Piotr Zielinski’s missed penalty may be consequential. While Milan had fallen here in the playoffs and been humbled in the return leg too, their city rivals simp...
