When Skype launched its “Prime” pay-to-speak-with-an-expert service back in 2007, it gave everyone in the world the chance to become a paid expert phone sex operator. Simply hang out your virtual shingle, set up the price you want to charge, and watch the money roll in. Want to teach a foreign language? You can! Want to offer astrological advice? You can! Want to provide “tranny sex talk”? You, err, can do that too (and someone has).
Two years later, we decided to take a look at how the great Skype Prime experiment in selling expertise, sex talk, and horoscopes has worked. Short answer: not well.
