Several reports had surfaced in the web last week when Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg tipped off the press in the US that a new product described as “awesome” is coming to the biggest social networking site on July 6th.
Though not really enigmatic to the extent that both Facebook and Skype didn’t even say anything official on what to unveil this Wednesday, Mashable has reported they were able to confirm from unnamed sources that such “awesome” product is actually the integration of Skype to Facebook. That means we can expect an in-browser video chat on Facebook powered by Skype anytime soon. Facebook video chat is going to be a revolutionary feature mind you, that would go head to head with the Hangouts feature on the recently launched Google+.
There’s a great possibility though that Skype and Facebook will indeed enter into more integration of its services, in fact on the latest Skype 5.5 Beta client, one can instant message Facebook friends through Skype. If Facebook video chat comes into a reality through Skype, it also means the latter can leverage the social network’s user base to substantially ramp up its usage. Of course that's going to be a win-win partnership.
Surely, we’ll find out more on this report so just stay tuned! [via]
Update: Facebook Video Calling through Skype is Official.
