Google Apps will get stronger video chat capabilities

Google Apps users can expect to see significant improvements in the suite’s voice- and video-chat capabilities, as the company builds on Gmail’s current features in that area.

Gmail’s voice and video chats are now limited to one-to-one communications, but Google wants to broaden that capability to more than two participants and make it more robust all around for Apps.

“This [current Gmail capability] is the first step in a much broader set of features we hope to roll out over the next six to 12 months around video [and voice] chat capabilities,” said Rishi Chandra, a Google Apps product manager. “It’s a great opportunity for us to push that space along.”
