Embed a #Skype-like chat in your webpage @tokbox
I had a quick look on the internet to see if it was easy to embed Skype / Facetime / or Google talk in a website, and although it seems possible to embed Skype – MDLive did it, but only in partnership with Microsoft, so I don’t think it’s open to all. Facetime seems completely closed.
- When prompted, grant access to your camera and microphone.
- The video from your webcam should appear in the browser.
- Mute your speaker.
- Copy the URI in the browser to your Clipboard.
- Open a new tab.
- Paste the URI into the new tab. Now you should have two videos.
Tip: If you have a public address, share the path with a friend for a real video chat!
