Google launches Video chat on Gtalk and Gmail. Gmail users, Please avoid.

So, Google comes up with another kickass tool, Video Chat on Gtalk. Donno how it works on Gtalk, Because, GTALK IS NOT AVAILABLE FOR MAC, Can you imagine?, Anyways, Tried it on Gmail chat. First of all, you have to download a pluggin. It's necessory for both Gtalk and Gmail users.

Download it here: http://mail.google.com/videochat

After Downloading and installing it, you just have to click the Video Chat link on your messenger, and it activates the video. Again, donno about Gtalk, but in Gmail, that thing turned off my chat, even after clicking on Turn on chat button at the bottom of the page, it doesn't work. So Gmail users, Please avaoid using Video chat, if you love your messenger. I'll write again if the problem is solved.

Yes, now it started working. But not on Firefox, it works well on Safari, so might also work on IE. Bu the opposite person must have Video Chat enabled for it. It can't work one way.
