I'm working on a new website and I'd like to add a videochat feature. So I'm looking for services giving an API to do that easily.

Here is the list of features I need:

  • 1-to-1 chat (a user can chat with an other one)
  • video
  • voice
  • chat
  • be able to know if somebody is currently chatting
  • user-friendly
  • working on all standard configurations (for example ooVoo doesn't work on safari 64bit)

Thank you!
