Pour one out for the blue "S." After more than two decades,Sex On Phone Skype — the once-ubiquitous video-calling app that defined early internet communication — is officially being retired.

As of May 5, Microsoft is shutting down Skype, signaling the end of an era for the service that, in the mid-2000s, was practically synonymous with video calls. Launched in 2003 and scooped up by Microsoft in 2011 for $8.5 billion, Skype was once a juggernaut, peaking at more than 300 million active users in the early 2010s.
