Apple has made a beta version of Facetime for the Mac - previously only available for iPhone and iPod Touch - now available for download today.

 Featuring an easy to use interface, FaceTime for Mac automatically uses your Address Book contacts so there’s no need to create special buddy lists, and it works seamlessly with the built-in camera and mic on Mac notebooks, iMac and Apple LED Cinema Displays, the company said.

“FaceTime makes video calling to or from mobile devices easy for the first time,” said Steve Jobs, Apple’s chief executive . “We’ve sold more than 19 million FaceTime-ready iPhone 4 and iPod touch devices in the past four months, and now those users can make FaceTime calls with tens of millions of Mac users.”
