I have a client who is interested in adding a video chat type of thing to a site. I have never worked on anything like that before and I'm not sure exactly where to start.

Has anyone ever done anything like that before? How is that normally handled? Maybe some links to get me started? I've googled around a bit but I'm not finding much in info, mostly just services.

If someone has experience with this and would be interested in handling this for me let me know and I can give you more details.

Don't reinvent the wheel -- find a third-party service that'll do what they need. Unless you're really keen to get into the guts of it, it'll save you endless headaches down the line.

Unless you are doing porn, and need a way to keep your video secure, go with an established solution
