Skype today revealed a new way for people to enliven their messages with what it calls Mojis. Mojis are short video clips pulled from popular movies and television shows such as The Muppets, Despicable Me, Bridesmaids, Pitch Perfect, and Jurassic Park that can be added to conversations. The clips contain famous and oft-used sound bytes or catchphrases from the movies and shows for their entertainment value. Some if the first content providers include Universal Studios, Disney Muppets, and BBC. Skype said it is working with other studios to bulk up its library of Mojis for Skype users. Mojis will be available to the Android, Mac, iOS, and Windows versions of Skype through an app update.
