Did Chatroulette Just Launch the Video Conferencing Boom?

  I'm not sure this author has actually spent any amount of time on Chatroulette. The article reads as a list of video stats glued together with some exposition about the magic of the internet. The average Chatroulette connection lasts, in my experience, roughly three seconds. If anyone started the "video conferencing boom," it was Skype and Apple, with iChat.

    After watching last week's Tosh.0, your description may be more spot on than you realize.

  Yes, but its really fucked up so its utility is very questionable.
