    Hey guys I want to use two Skype accounts: One for my internet friends and one for my real life friends. I want to create two totally separate accounts that are not linked in any way.

    Is there any way for people on either account to see my other account? Like if I were logged in using the Skype account for my real life friends, could the people on my Skype account for internet friends see it? Could they type in my email address in the 'search for contacts' and see both accounts for example?

    How does it work?

    Thanks for any help!

    It looks like people could find me by just adding in my email address...

    If you want to separate in person friends from internet friends, I suggest you use separate email addresses as well.
