prostoalex writes "Businesses are starting to pay closer attention to Skype as executives discover that VoIP application can cut the long distance and international call costs. News.com mentions two companies - Aruba Wireless Networks and Ruhrpumpen. The former placed a Skype button on its Web page, the latter put the Skype usernames in its intranet employee directory."

    So Skype got its product placed into a news.com(.com!) story, already a marketing coup, and then got that placed on the Slashdot front page (a dubious marketing coup). A couple of tiny businesses are riding Skype. What's the big deal?
