Chat Roulette
Is it possible to meet an Orange County housewife, a pair of Chinese school girls and a teenage boy in a welding mask in under a minute? With a Webcam and Internet access, Chatroulette.com makes it possible. Users enter the site and within seconds are face-to-face with a stranger. A “next” button moves the user on to one of the more than 20,000 other people on the site. Unsavory types will most likely frighten unsuspecting Chat Roulette virgins, but the ones that stick it out will find: trigger happy users, judging and “nexting” before any actual conversation can be initiated; attention-seekers, putting on some type of outlandish display typically involving dance moves; and the random curious, just interested in the experience. Get past the voyeurism and exhibitionists and this site is an incredible global look at modern society; Chat Roulette introduces people from all over the world who otherwise would have never met.
