Hey Indore!

Do you like to meet strange people? do you like to talk to Strangers? Would you mind peeking into someone else's living room - or bedroom? Would you allow someone else to see your living room?

Well, if you answered yes to any of these questions, then Chat Roulette is worth a try! A latest innovation in the social media world, Chat Roulette is like a game or roulette, where you will never know what number comes up next.

Here, you'll never know who comes up on your screen when you click "next". A website built with 2 webcam boxes, one showing your camera video transmission to others, and the other will bring up random users from across the world.

One minute you'll be seeing someone from indore, and other minute you may end up seeing someone sitting thousands of miles away in New York. You can see them, chat with them, talk to them...and have some fun.

Beware, before you go try it yourself, the website is not rated, that means you may see people with or without clothes. Somethings that you may not want to see, will be visible - so better be prepared before you go foray in  the uncharted waters.

The Website ChatRoulette can be accessed by typing  www.chatrt.com or www.Chatroulette.com. It has been developed by a Russian teenager named Andrey Ternovskiy, who says he created the site for himself and his friends.

Today it has over 50000+ users, and over 20000 online at any given time.

The images that come up on your screen may not be the most desirable ones, so be careful while using this website. Also, we found Chat Roulette very addictive, and you may find the same too.

The most interesting part of the play is that its just like a game or a speed-dating event where you get few minutes to talk to the person infront of you. They may scare you, or they may interest you. 

Andrey says, "I created this project for fun. Initially, I had no business goals with it. I created this project recently. I was and still am a teenager myself, that is why I had a certain feeling of what other teenagers would want to see on the Internet. I myself enjoyed talking to friends with Skype using a microphone and webcam. But we got tired of talking to each other eventually. So I decided to create a little site for me and my friends where we could connect randomly with other people." (from NYTimes Bits blog)
