Tanmoy, the being

1. Are you an Expert or professional? Are you a language teacher, tutor, translator, consultant, coach, Blogger or any other type of Expert whose time and expertise is in demand?

Here is how Skype can help you..

Check out http://www.jyvepro.com.
JyvePro is a Plugin system that enables anybody to charge for their time over a Skype call. You can convert Skype calls to paying calls on the fly.

1a. Do you know 2 or more languages? Provide interpreter services without leaving your desk..
The 2 parties intersted in conversing with each other include you in their conference. You can listen to one and then translate for the other (and vice versa).
of course, you could get paid for your time too if you want (using Jyve)
The parties could be calling in from landline or skype as well, while you could be online or redirect your skype calls to a landline/mobile phone.. quite flexible for all..

2. IVR (interactive voice response) software can be coupled with Skype to give access to network radios, weather/traffic reports, news, infomation etc..
