The  outage started Wednesday, Skype said on its website, and the technical  problems were keeping people from logging into the Internet phone  service. Early Thursday morning, the company announced on its  Twitter page that it was still working on the problem. Twitter is a  microblogging site that allows users to display messages. "Thanks  for your continued patience while we get everyone back online -- sorry  especially to those of you who are still waiting," the announcement  said. The company said the issue stemmed from a problem with connecting to computers they called "supernodes." "Our  engineers are creating new 'mega-supernodes' as fast as they can, which  should gradually return things to normal. This may take a few hours,"  Skype said Wednesday afternoon. Skype allows free internet voice and video calling and has grown in popularity. Users can also call land lines or mobile phones with Skype for a fee. </blockquote>
