I though the question would be more accurately rephrased as "is anyone  
NOT using skype?" :) I use it too - Still, Skype has hidden problems,  
mainly that it senses the speed of the machine it runs on, and if the  
speed is high enough, it will act as a relay for other skype users.  
The process goes hayward easily, and skype can become a fairly serious  
problem for a network. UCSB has recently banned its use for this  
reason, endorsing an alternative technology (www.gizmoproject.com)  
instead. May be worth a thought.
