Web link previews will be gradually rolled out on Mac, and then to other platforms in the coming months. Microsoft has optimized for video and image content, so try links to video, image or even gifs first. Finding a link in your chat history also becomes quicker, saving precious time to let you focus on the conversation. When you send the link in chat, a rich visual preview of the web page is automatically displayed, making it much easier to see what’s been shared. With web link previews, you no longer need to type the: “check out this funny cat video” alongside the actual link to the cat video. Microsoft yesterday announced the release of Skype 7.7 for Mac with web link previews, which makes sharing web pages in Skype an easier and richer experience.
