The service is web-based, with no app to download or registration required, and it taps into the same social graph as Facebook. The idea is to offer a friction-less way to video chat on any platform both with friends and with "people like you" outside your network.
What is Airtime?
Airtime is a new live video service from the creators of Napster. Airtime is many things, but above all, it’s the following:
The best and fastest way to video chat with your friends on any platform. No download required, just login with Facebook and begin video chatting with your friends immediately, right in your browser.
Live content sharing with friends. Everyone on Airtime is both participant and performer. Play YouTube videos for your friends and see their reactions live.
Discover people like you. Break outside your social graph and find people like you based on shared interests.

Airtime is drawing a lot of comparisons to Chatroulette-a service to chat with strangers that was the startup du jour back in 2010. Parker says he's aware of concerns, and that Airtime's top focus is "safety." Plus, the fact that the service is built on Facebook means that "the system knows who you are," which should help defeat the flashers which dragged down Chatroulette.
