In a lightening talk at LCA 2015, François Marier demonstrated a new
browser button in Firefox 34 that provides a link setting up a WebRTC
video connection:

It may not be the most featureful or secure alternative, and it uses
the same underlying WebRTC technology as many others mentioned, but it
does have the advantage of requiring no install or sign-up from either
party.

https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/hello/ has a bit more.
