Video Chat Returns To Facebook's Code, Integrates With Skype

Last May we first discovered code that provided evidence of Facebook testing a video chat product. While the code eventually disappeared, it has returned to the company’s code base, as first pointed out by Tal Ater.

Recently Skype and Facebook announced a large integration, however that integration appeared to be limited to the Skype desktop application. Back in September it was reported that “Facebook users will be able to video chat with each other.” While this is theoretically possible via Skype already, it wouldn’t be surprising if those calls could take place directly from within Facebook.
