What is a "real user"?: It is not a measurement of Skype's registered users or paying customers. A "real" Skype user is approximately the same as a user whose presence is detected daily. Some may prefer to think of this as a usage unit rather than as a user, but I believe it is very close the number of actual/real people that use Skype regularly. By design, the measurement includes the offsetting influences of occasional Skypers and hyperactive Skypers.
9/5/08 13:45 12,139,941 Skype Online Now: This is a graph of concurrent "real" Skype users. It is updated every 15 minutes. It illustrates the fluctuation of usage throughout the day as users around the world log in and log off. 2008 growth appears to be very strong so far. It will probably continue but it might not.

9/5/08 13:15 11,994,259 Business Usage: The normal gap between peak weekday and weekend usage is about 15%. This is a reflection of how much Skype is used for business (in Europe and the Americas). The gap does not appear to be either growing or shrinking. Persistent Usage: On the other hand, the gap between the weekday trough and the weekend trough is growing. If the trend continues, which it might not, then it probably will confirm earlier observations that a growing percentage of Skype users are maintaining their Skype "presence" all day long or even around the clock. As Skype becomes a carrier for standard telephony, we would expect this to happen.
