It seems as that another rumor involving the sale of Skype pops up every few months, and today Mashable is reporting another one.  With the country mired in a recession, perhaps the price is right for our favorite search engine to incorporate our favorite VOIP service.

I wrote about the potential of Google purchasing Skype back in April.  I feel even more strongly about it now that Android is out, and more handsets with it are coming soon.  With everything Google has under its umbrella: the languishing GrandCentral, Android, Google Talk, and who knows what they aren’t telling us about yet; Skype is not only a revenue generating service, but ties quite nicely into the Google portfolio.  And after the recent cuts of many free offerings, and new limitations on others, Google might be more willing than ever to buy Skype.

I know I would use Skype a lot more if my GrandCentral number were tied into it.
