Mozilla has announced the release of an update to its
Firefox browser, now version 41, for both desktop platforms and android.
According to them, this is the first browser to have built-in instant messaging.
The feature only works on the desktop version for now, but lets you IM
directly from a Hello video call whether
you're on Windows, Mac or Linux.
Hello is powered by WebRTC (which stands for Web Real-Time Communications), an open-source API that supports browser-to-browser communication and applications like voice calling and video chat.

Hello users can also see who they're chatting with, there is a new option
to set a profile photo on the desktop browser. As for the Android version,
users can now use multiple providers like Google and Bing at once from the
search panel and swipe to close tabs.
The updated version of Firefox should now be available to all, or coming soon if not and depending on your settings, you'll either get it automatically or be flagged that it's available.
