Google has picked up Sweden-based Marratech for their video conferencing software. Google's VP of engineering, Douglas Merrill, made the announcement on the company's blog last night, saying that Marratech's software will "enable from-the-desktop participation for Googlers in videoconference meetings wherever there's an Internet connection."

The software currently offers video chat with multiple participants, VoIP, text chat, and a "whiteboard" that allows chat participants to screen-share documents and apps.
