I'm using Telify with Skype, and it works pretty well. I give it a 4/5 for the following deficiencies:
- it can take more than a few seconds to find and linkify phone numbers in a page, but that could be because some of the pages I tested it on have a lot of content that took quite some time to load,
- in cases where links are auto-opened in a new tab, such as when clicking a phone number in gmail, it doesn't properly add the +1 prefix required by Skype for US numbers, so you can't click to call the number, though the right click menu will still allow you to call it correctly, and
- as pointed out by another review, it requires a minimum of two clicks to make a call.

I think my second and third points could be corrected with a bit more in the configuration, like a default country code and a "one-click call" option. Contrary to the review by roybragg on 3 Nov, Telify doesn't cause any gmail problems for me, and it seems to detect phone numbers in gmail as well as anywhere else.
