Dealing with the topic of new communication technologies, one new innovation, which is not fully developed, is WebRTC - Web Real Time Communication. WebRTC allows users to make video and audio calls, and even to send text messages, in the browser. No plug in or application needs to be installed, it uses JavaScript and HTML5. The new versions of most browsers are already supporting WebRTC (WebRTC 2013). It will be interesting to observe if WebRTC will have the predicted impact on communication in the future.
I can highly recommend the following video if you want to have a comprehensive idea about what WebRTC is and what it might be able to do.
The first time I heard about WebRTC, and that is the reason why I have chosen this topic, was in the telecommunication company in Germany I am working in - Deutsche Telekom AG. The project 'WebRTC' and a correlated master thesis wanted to help developing and improving WebRTC, at least to integrate it in other applications and products from the company.
