Video Conferencing by Google is on its Way!
Currently limited to one-to-one communication, Google is now all set to strengthen its voice and video chat capabilities in its e-mail service. According to Rishi Chandra, Google Apps product manager told SFGate that Google is set to roll out its first update in a long line of updates that will include multi-user video conferencing.
He was also quoted saying that introducing video conferencing abilities is the first step in a much broader set of features we hope to roll out over the next six to 12 months around video and voice chat capabilities.
The aim of launching free video chat and conferencing features was to bridge the gap that the other players had created. For Google it is a great opportunity to push that space along.
