how facebook video chat works
As expected, Facebook took the wraps off a new video chat product Wednesday at the company's Palo Alto, California, headquarters. The new service, Video Calling, was developed by Facebook's Seattle team in conjunction with Skype. The browser-based Video Calling is integrated directly into Facebook--no new accounts, no new passwords required. Users will soon notice a video camera icon when they open a Facebook Chat window with another friend. A single click of the video button will begin a Video Calling session. CEO Mark Zuckerberg described the service as an easy-to-use extension of the Facebook platform.
