Facebook announced three new features: group chat, which lets you message with multiple people in one window; an updated chat interface that takes into account your browser size; and its most anticipated feature, video calling. All three will be rolling out to users over the next several weeks.
Facebook's video calling, which is powered by Skype, is surprisingly easy to install and use—exactly what CEO Mark Zuckerberg said was their goal in designing and integrating the new feature.
All users will have access to video calling soon, but if you want to get started now, visit www.facebook.com/video calling to download the client. Video calling works best with Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome, Internet Explorer and Safari, according to Facebook. Note that video calling for Linux is not currently supported, and mobile integrations are not yet available.
