CHATROULETTE: an adventure in vouyerism?

Recently I was introduced to the website 'Chatroulette' while watching a program on TV.

The concept of the website is simple: if you have a webcam and the time - you can randomly talk to strangers selected for you by the web server - no prerequisites, no logins, no passwords.

There are no 'screen names'.

There's no 'friend-ing'.

There's no 'friend request'.

It's just you and.....anyone.

From fellow college students to exhibitionists to young children, Internet lurkers of all types can be found on Chat Roulette — except, of course, attractive females, despite being the reason why 99.99 percent of users frequent the site.

You just go to the website, click on 'new game' and in seconds you are introduced to a world of lonely men, giggling teenage girls, honey teenage boys with hormones raging, or just the innocent.

Is it safe? Probably not.

Is it interesting? Hysterical at times.

To see what all the fuss is about go to www.chatroulette.com and see for yourself!
