Yes, but the participants all have to be online or you need to stay online until everybody gets what you have sent. You can access your communication but only for limited time (days, months but not years), and if you use several computers it tends to create chaos. Skype is great for instant communication, but not for widespread exchange of facts etc, especially not for people who live in different time zones or have internet access at different times of day.
I am not trying to say your idea is wrong - I just try to point out that the way you suggested is not ideal and for what reasons. If somebody resents not being invited into a web-based forum, they can also resent not being invited into a Skype chat.
