- The new video calling functionality for Facebook works even with social networkers who don’t use Skype. According to the post: “To start a video call with a Facebook buddy, select the person in your list and click ‘video call.'”
- Group screen sharing is available with Skype Premium and allows users to share their screen or an application window with others on a conference call.
- Also new: full HD video calls, a push-to-talk hotkey, the ability to hide offline Facebook contacts and Bing toolbar integration.
