You should be well aware of Chat Roulette by now. If not, I’ll save you from sure social emboerrissment and fill you in – It basically connects you to other people with webcams. So they look at you and you look at them. If you both have microphones, you can also chat. Or you can type-chat to each other. It’s like Skype, except you don’t know who you’re gonna get.
If you don’t like what you see (and vice versa) you click “next” and the next random Chat Roulette visitor pops up on your screen.
* As you can imagine, it’s jam packed full of freaks. I also wouldn’t check it out at work – as you can imagine, it’s littered with penises too.
David Thorne, the legend that he is, had a little look around chat roulette – with hysterical results.
This is how he kicked off:
The problem with Chatroulette and other video based communication is the fact that people can see you. This means that I would have to shower, shave and wear something nice before going online. As it takes me at least four hours just to do my hair, this is simply not practical. I generally write in track suit pants and t-shirt while eating pizza, which would be unfair to the other parties to have to view.
Having heard a lot about Chatroulette, I decided to have a look. For every ten video connections, eight of them were fat people playing with their penis. Apart from a couple of interesting people I met, it was possibly the most pointless website I have ever been on. Just don’t even bother.
