Twitter users can now take advantage of Tinychat’s video conferencing capabilities. Much like the web conferencing phenomenon, Chatroulette, Tinychat brings that same idea in the form of a twitter client. Tinychat offers quick and easy video conferencing for the Twiterati.

Tinychat can best be described as a Twitter+Chatroulette+Skype hybrid. Users can randomly chat with each other or link up to their own friends and followers via video. Unlike Chatroulette, users can customize their Twitter chatrooms and invite who they want to chat with instead of leaving it up to fate. Twitter users can also secure private video chat by locking-down their room and chat. Additionally, group chat is available through Tinychat as well.

Users can customize their chatrooms and embed the room on their website or invite other users using a simple URL. Another cool feature Tinychat provides Twitter users with the ability to customize chatrooms per title, topic or subject of interest. Similar to twitter trending topics, users can set up a chatroom with a specific chat title and Twitter will mass broadcast the link to all who search the topic, as well as to friends and followers.

Although Tinychat’s Twitter client will most likely be used for entertainment purposes, web conferencing via social media will open up several opportunities for businesses as well. Businesses will be able to host online webinars about company related product releases and events for their followers and even gain new followers thanks to the video trending option. Tinychat will help unite social media CRM with Web Conferencing as a new way to foster enterprise-to-customer interactions.

Tinychat is currently available as a Twitter client, which means of course, a Facebook client is on its way. Look out for a convergence of social media and video conferencing technology software in the near future, inspired by Chatroulette’s success.
