Kim Dotcom is looking to take on rival video chat services like Skype, although Mega differs as there is no need to download any software, the video and audio calls are done directly from your web browser.
It will be interesting to see if the software becomes popular, 500,000 calls made in the first hour is impressive, and we are looking forward to seeing how the software is developed.
