Skype has two things WebRTC lacks: A directory And Signaling Without those things it's hard to compete with Skype or the PSTN.

  Twelephone (http://twelephone.com http://twelephone.com) uses Twitter as its user directory and is almost at feature parity with Skype ;)

    "Almost at feature parity" is kind of an outrageous claim... I just gave it a try with a friend, and it was glitchy, our video was stretched out (on both ends), there's a big "More" button that does nothing, no file transfers, no screen sharing, not sure if conference calls are even supported, etc. If only there were an open-source private version of Google Hangouts.
