To Fight Off Airtime and Google+ Hangouts, Facebook Tests Adding Video ?Call? Button To Profiles

Facebook Call ButtonDesperate to increase video chat usage, Facebook is testing out a "Call" button ?on top of people's timeline profiles.?I don't think I've received a Facebook video chat since Facebook partnered with Skype to launch the feature a year ago, but now that might change.?If a friend?is online on the desktop version of Facebook, those in the test see a "Call" button next to that friends name on their profile , while previously a?tiny videocamera icon in the text chat window was basically the only way to start a video chat. Facebook seems to have realized it needed to highlight the feature, otherwise when people want to smile and laugh with friends face to face their first thought might be the Google+ and its Hangouts, or the?newly launched Airtime from former Facebook President Sean Parker.
