Unfortunately, you still have to create an account under Win**ws or macs
or you could ask someone to create one for you. Fortunately, you need to
create an account only once. :-)

Logging into Skype with the Linux client is easily possible, start
Skype, enter your username, press tab, enter your password and press
enter. If you're logged in, your username shows up in the application
title which is read by Orca if you press alt-tab to switch between
running applications. Btw: Skype's configuration files are based on XML, so
they are human-readable and can edited with one's favourite editor.
