Gmail新增语音视频聊天功能

Google周二在Gmail中新增了视频和语音聊天工具Gmail Video And Voice，所有Gmail用户今后均可免费使用该服务进行网络视频对话。
用户需要安装一个浏览器插件和麦克风（语音聊天）、摄像头（视频聊天），该插件大约2MB，支持Chrome、Firefox 2.0+、IE 7.0和Safari3.0。之后，用户即可点击Gmail中的联系人，通过弹出的视频窗口进行语音聊天或视频聊天了，当然前提是对方也像你一样安装了该软件，如果对方没有安装麦克风或摄像头，你也可以和其进行语音视频聊天，不过就是单向的了，类似于QQ的语音视频聊天。

我已经装上了，可惜没别人装上跟我测试。我gtalk上的联系人多半都是老古董。

说实话，有点惊喜的感觉，这个功能居然先出现在Gmail里

Google just added voice and video chat capabilities to Gmail, the perennially in beta web mail program. It uses a special web browser plug-in available for PC and Mac, which requires Firefox, IE, Chrome, and a camera. The plug-in only weights 2MB.

For now there's no video support in Google Chat, but you will be able to access this from the web browser, with the capability to tear the video chat into a separate window. According to Google spokesman Jason Freidenfelds, the idea is to make it "quicker and easier to communicate with other people by whatever means is best convenient." Which of course really means "easy to access video sex from any computer".  [Reuters and Cnet]
