You might wonder what is Firefox Hello and I bet most Firefox end user around Malaysia didnt notice or dont even know about this at all, this feature was added in build 35 beta if I’m not mistaken. So basically what is Firefox Hello? Simply put, it allows you to have a free video conversation with anyone right from your browser.

This feature is really quite amazing, since you don’t need to install any software, register and do any e-mail verification like other video conversation software such as Skype and Hangout, it keeps me totally anonymous, the setup is easy as all you need is create a conversation and share the link of the conversation to your friend.

Of course there are some requirements for this feature. Firstly you need any browser that supports WebRTC which you can find out more about here. So which browsers support WebRTC? Of course Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome and Opera , so far those with Internet Explorer and Safari browser are out of luck.

How can Firefox Hello be of use to you? For me, it has potential to be my favorite feature, if I want to start a video conference or voice over IP call with my client, I just need to give them my invitation link. No account needed, no software installation or whatsoever. Simply give them the invitation link and I am set. You can learn more about Firefox Hello here.
