How does this sound -: You will soon be able to make Voip calls directly from your facebook account. In other words, you may will soon find skype integrated with your facebook account. So along with chatting with your friends, you will be able to place phone calls (Video calls ?).
I read this news somewhere on web while surfing about the latest in the voip world. I kinda liked what I read and thought of sharing with you all. It would be highly beneficial for all, if Skype gets integrated with Facebook. This will be a huge impact on gmail/google talk. A lot of people have been chatting on facebook itself and not on gmail.
According to Allthingsdigital, Facebook and Skype are working to allow Facebook users to send SMS messages and make voice and video calls to friends and contacts via Skype.
It may be vice-versa too, that is Facebook users allow to use Skype using their facebook account. Its more like integration of Facebook (social networking in Skype). Facebookers will be able to sign into Skype through Facebook Connect, which allows users to sign into third-party Websites with their Facebook accounts. The integration is expected in Skype 5.0, scheduled for an October launch. A Facebook-Skype VOIP integration would also be an answer to communications and collaboration capabilities offered by Google.
Lets see what finally comes into market, but I am sure this will be a great move by Skype and Facebook and will be accepted by all.. I am really looking forward for this.

Madhur,
ReplyDeleteIt is good to see that VOIP providers are moving to social media to extend their reach. Skype's integration with facebook is in talks and hopefully we will see it happening sometime soon.
However, Skype can not boast to be the first one to integrate calling with facebook. A few days ago Vonage did that, that post is covered here "Vongae's FB application to make free calls. This application has received mixed responses from our readers but more or less they are happy with it.

It's great to hear that we will make voip calls through our facebook accounts. It's really great functionality that voip is giving.
ReplyDeleteIt will be great seeing free call from all social sites. They should charge anything in coming future.
