I'm looking for a plugin or way that will allow me to click or highlight a phone number and initate FaceTime Audio call. Currently this feature exists with Safari (see screenshot) but I haven't found a way to do it with google chrome. Any ideas or suggestions? I don't want to use Safari. I have noticed with some websites if I click a phone number (if it's a link) it will ask me if I want to launch Skype (see screenshot) but I'm guessing that has to be coded on the web developers side and not my end.

I have the OSX Yosemity Continuity feature setup so I can place calls from my mac through my iPhone.

Sweet! Tried it. Works great.

Just to clarify for the next person.

First download pop clip here: http://pilotmoon.com/popclip/ - There is a trial and cheap after the trial.

Then install and configure that.

Then download the extension: http://pilotmoon.com/popclip/extensions/ext/Call.popclipextz
Double click it once downloaded. Then you're good to go! Highlight a number and you're given the option to call with facetime. Finally!

And if anyone wants to toggle on/off the iSight camera (so your camera doesn't turn on everytime you open up FaceTime (when you primarily use it for Audio calls) check out this post:
