Skype now provides a yum repository.  Stick this in a file (e.g.
skype.repo) in your /etc/yum.repos.d directory:

[skype]
name=Skype Repository
baseurl=http://download.skype.com/linux/repos/fedora/updates/i586/
gpgkey=http://www.skype.com/products/skype/linux/rpm-public-key.asc

Then you can just use yum install skype.
