Depends on whether your boss knows what "Skyping" is.

Skyping = meeting by using Skype

Collins CoBuild includes a 'Skype with' example. Already! Impressive.

Skype as a verb has been around for ever -- well, for years, long before it was bought by Microsoft. I've only ever heard/used it with a direct object though. "I will be Skyping you"
