“To start with, video communication is highly affordable compared to conventional video conferencing services. We are also making special arrangements with leading international carriers to ensure that consumers always reach their international destinations easily and at most affordable rates,” BSNL CMD RK Upadhyay said.

Google+ eyeing to interact more with Facebook and Twitter

Google PlusGoogle’s executive chairman Eric Schmidt has said that he would like Google+ to interact more with Facebook and Twitter.

Speaking to journalists at a media conference in Idaho, Schmidt admitted that he’d ‘love to have deeper integration with Twitter and Facebook.’

But so far the attempts to bring more interaction between Google+ and Facebook have been unsuccessful as Facebook has been resisting Google+’s talks to import Facebook friends.

Twitter too isn’t much of a help, keeping in mind the search deal between Google and Twitter ended recently without renewal as they couldn’t agree on terms.

Schmidt quite rightly pointed out that it is too early to say how Google+ is doing but did bring up video hang outs, which he said are very popular with younger users.

But now that Facebook has launched its own Skype-powered video chat feature, Google+ may lose some users to Zuckerberg’s bigger and better-established network.
