Firefox was the first browser outside Google to support the WEBRTC video protocol, and today they are launching a video call service for mainstream browsers with the first WEBRTC telecoms operator, Spain Telefonica.

Firefox Hello defaults to the latest version of the Firefox browser, the initiation of the dialogue requires users to use the plug-in, and receive the dialog only need to use the other support WebRTC browser. At the moment, Chrome, Firefox and Opera have all supported the WEBRTC agreement, and IE, which rejected WEBRTC to move to the ORTC standard, has also announced changes in the next version.

Using Firefox Hello, both sides need not register or login account, only the initiator in the plug-in select "Initiate a conversation", the generated link address to the good, the other side in the browser to access the address can join the conversation.

A friend who initiates a conversation is automatically saved in the contact list for subsequent administration or direct call initiation. If you do not want to receive messages for a short time, you can set the online status to "Do Not Disturb".

Firefox has been pushing for multiple forms of WEBRTC-free internet usage, and while the support of the web is already in the mainstream desktop and mobile browsers, it seems like an existing communication tool is needed to send a conversation address to a friend.
