Gmail Introduces Voice and Video Chat

Google recently announced video and voice chat feature for Gmail. It is different from any other similar application because it does not need any third party software to make it works. Instead, you are only required to install a small browser plugin. This new functionality works well on Windows XP, Windows Vista, and OS X. It supports most of the major browsers like Firefox, Internet Explorer and Chrome.



To get started, first you need to install the plugin. To initiate a video conversation, just hit the "Video & more" menu at the bottom of your Gmail chat window, and choose "Start video chat". For resizing you just need to click on the popup icon to make the video larger or alternatively you can simply click the full screen icon in the top left corner.


See it in action in the following video.
