Comment(by dcf):

 Some more information, paraphrasing from what cjb told me.

 WebRTC supported only unreliable media (audio/video) channels until
 recently. `RTCDataChannel` is in Chrome 26 and Firefox 18. The two
 browsers don't yet interoperate out of the box. This demo connection,
 http://www.webrtc.org/demo, requires setting the
 [https://hacks.mozilla.org/2013/02/hello-chrome-its-firefox-calling/
 media.peerconnection.enabled] pref. Chrome's `RTCDataChannel` is
 unreliable, while Firefox has a reliable one.

 Nice Mozilla docs: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/WebRTC
