If you are a fan of games like Bejeweled or Tetris, then you may get your latest game from Skype’s newest service. Speaking at Communications Developer Conference Paul Amery, director of the Skype Developer Program announced Skype’s Game Channel, a casual games portal which will enable enable the third party developers to get access to their 2 million registered users.

“People are increasingly using Skype to interact with one another, with many choosing to play simple games like checkers or backgammon. However, the tremendous size of Skype’s user-base makes it an ideal environment for multi-player and community-based games in which people can play against or collaborate with one another.”, said Paul Amery.

Skype’s Game Channel is created and operated by a Norwegian company, called EasyBits Software. The service will be located within the Skype Extras Manager, which provides a quick and easy way for developers to promote their software to users.

“We hope the Skype Game Channel becomes a popular entertainment destination within the Skype community. Our goal is to make it as easy and profitable as possible for the developers, while keeping it simple and fun for consumers to use,” Amery added.
