I've been reading posts in the Skype community on this and associated
topics and I'm not the only one pondering as to why one can't
communicate between multiple devices logged into a single Skype account
but the fact is you can't.
The obvious scenario seems to be direct communication between family
members with different devices however it seems that each user has to
have their own account and yes, if each user has their own account then
they can obviously communicate freely using Skype and I see Microsoft's
point here, a little annoying to have to create multiple accounts but
still useful.

Subject: Multiple Devices Sharing A Skype Account
Hi!
I’ve been using Skype for my default phone system since 2009 and during that
time I’ve found much to like about the system and very little to dislike, the
“Unlimited World” subscription along with the “Skype-In” numbers really give
the Skype service that little bit of extra value and incentive to use not to
mention the huge leaps and bounds audio quality has taken over the last 6 years
of me using the system, call dropouts are pretty much left behind these days
and talking with people Overseas using my Skye-In numbers or my Skype-Out? Well
there’s very little delay or background noise.
So it came to me this morning, if you have multiple devices connected to your
Skype account why not have them act as a sort of intercom system as cordless
handsets on one base do? Perhaps that’s a feature Skype may consider in the
future if its indeed possible and I couldn’t see why it wouldn’t be given all
devices logged into Skype on your account are usually sharing the same Home
Network anyway.
