Philipp Hancke and Lance Stout join us to talk about WebRTC.
WebRTC marks an important milestone for the web. It presents browsers with real communication and peer-to-peer channels. There are a decent number of signaling tools emerging for WebRTC, but the vast majority of current WebRTC offerings are the same old song and dance: “Here’s our ‘open’ WebRTC platform, library, or toolkit: it’s still yet another Silo.” What if it was simple to build or deploy a video calling service on our own server that could talk to anyone else using fully open and already distributed protocols, without having to reinvent the wheel at all?
