The reason put forward by Facebook for opting out of group chat is that one-to-one video chat is more popular on Skype compared to group chat (but group chat in Skype is a paid product and that could be a reason for this lack of popularity as well). But if you want to have a Skype Video Call between multiple users (videoconferencing), then you have to become premium users, for which you have to pay a fee.įacebook Video Chat does not offer group chat capabilities. Skype Video Calls between two people are free. Registered Skype users can make calls to other registered Skype users who are also running the client on their computers. In order to make a Video Call, a user must install the Skype client software on their computer and must register (create a free Skype account). Skype is software application that allows users to make video calls (called Skype Video Calls) to each other over the internet. Before this integration, Facebook did not have a video call feature, so this helps them to compete with Google+ (which is the newest social network with a video chat feature of their own). This integration is likely to help both companies to increase their popularity even more. Very recently, Facebook partnered with Skype (who is now owned by Microsoft), and now Facebook offers the Facebook Video Chat feature (Skype-powered video calling). Skype is the most widely used video calling software in the world today. Facebook is the most popular online social network with over 750+ million users worldwide.
