It's probably to compete with the Google+ videochat feature.

I have a feeling that google's version will work better.

Well, I don't use Failbook, and Skype is on the way out as well, which means I couldn't care less.
PS:...that said, good luck to those who do find it useful.:P

I'm with everyone who thinks google will be better, however I'm not a huge fan of social media in general so it really is not a big issue to me one way or the other.

Guess they need to thrash this out with Microsoft. As far as I know they recently acquired Skype. I'm waiting for the official news conference ...

Grrr,.. I really like skype,.. Facebook,.. not so much... grrrrrr...
I just hope that there is a way to only set your regular friends on skype cause I not want every idiot on face book to be video calling me whenever they got some stupid thought in their head.
