D'aw, it's cute that Facebook is playing catch-up.
You can't share other information while you're chatting (watch a YouTube video together), it doesn't integrate with Skype contacts even though it uses Skype's services (read: network), and it's 1-to-1 calling (unlike Google+ Hangout), you can't turn off video and leave it only voice-only calling, you can't be selectively offline to people (you have to un-friend them).

If you need me, I'll be using Google+ Hangouts instead.
EDIT: We're sorry. Video calling isn't available on this browser. Please try again with a different browser.
Their nifty 'use these browsers' post include my browser (Chrome[ium]). Well done!
EDIT 2: Note that video calling for Linux is not currently supported. You will need to use one of these browsers in a Mac or Windows operating system. If you’re having trouble with video calling, try upgrading or switching your browser using the links above.
