It’s very much experimental – it’s just one way, in as much as you can only post your current mood message to Twitter.

Enabling it will need you to be comfortable editing XML files by hand. To get started you’ll need to edit:

~/Library/Application Support/Skype/<username>/config.xml

…and then add the following to areas underneath the UI ยป General nodes:

<TwitterPassword>mypassword</TwitterPassword>
<TwitterUsername>mytwitterusername</TwitterUsername>

You can grab the full details on the Skype Developer Zone.
