Skype for Windows 8 updated with ability to block contacts

Interesting thing up for Skype users on Windows 8 – an update is here. Skype for Windows 8 has been updated to give users more control over who can contact them, courtesy contact blocking. Users can now block contacts, if they choose to, thereby deciding their circle of contacts on the popular VoIP platform. Users can block contacts on Skype by first selecting the person's name so it opens up the chat window. Swiping at the top or bottom of the screen (or right click) prompts the command bar with an option to block the contact. Alternatively, users can also choose to remove or report the contact request as spam. Skype goes on to add that the updated app features better loading speed and reliability.
