Skype video calls May come to Facebook chat

Facebook application developer Tal Ater has been digging through Facebook code and voila he has found a "VideoChat" object, which refers to Skype and Skype user IDs the code checks for plugin support using either ActiveX on Internet Explorer, or using the Skype SDK. Apparently, this code is not shown every time a page is loaded, hinting us Facebook is currently bucket testing the feature.

Its only obvious Facebook will add voice and even video calls at some point in the future. Lets face it, today’s youth relies on Facebook rather than email for messaging and why not offer them calls and video calls while there, as well.
