So far I haven't found any of my friends that have a web cam to check if it works. LOL

Hi all,
Well I heard about it through the Finacial post tech section so thought I'd check it out and mention it, but it is run through Skype, so if you have skype I can't see the benefit of using Facebook. I also find it 'awkward' to set up as you keep getting sent back and forth from face book to skype.
I had to try it out...as my wife uses Skype sometimes to chat with my sister on the Island, and her sister.
I am NOT imprressed at all.

@Scotty: Good to know. I thought their Skype Video Calling would continue to stay on their own FB page. Having to switch windows back and forth is not a friendly user app. Easier to just contact friend who have Skype and a Webcam. Thanks for sharing.
