Firefox and Chrome have a chat
[Development] Posted Feb 4, 2013 20:43 UTC (Mon) by corbet
According to blog postings from both the Chrome
and Mozilla
projects, the Chrome and Firefox browsers have achieved an
interoperability milestone: it is possible to run video calls directly
between the two browsers with WebRTC, using no intervening server.
"RTCPeerConnection (also known simply as PeerConnection or PC)
interoperability means that developers can now create Firefox WebRTC
applications that make direct audio/video calls to Chrome WebRTC
applications without having to install a third-party plugin. Because the
functionality is now baked into the browser, users can avoid problems with
first-time installs and buggy plugins, and developers can deploy their apps
much more easily and universally."
