Facebook Deals with Skype to Enhance Service

Facebook today announced a deal with Skype that will add live video chat to the social-networking site - marking the latest step-up in the battle against Google.

Founder of the social networking site, Mark Zuckerberg said it was an 'awesome' development for Skype as his company takes on the might of the internet search engine.

Google recently launched its Google+ service which also has a feature that allows video calls and the two companies are now locked in a head-to-head technological race. Until now Facebook users have been limited to instant text chat and the move to incorporate Skype takes their game to the next level.
