Does anybody actually believe that people will continue to use ChatRoulette? It seems like a novelty that will soon be forgotten.

  could anyone believe that facebook would be something more than a crimson face book, or that google would dominate yahoo, or that myspace would be almost forgotten by the media, could anyone believe twitter would become Twitter, no one knows really

    Agree! He already has tremendous amount of attention,press and users. If he iterates fast, and keep "freaks and fuckers" off the site, it could become mainstream(maybe it already becomes).

      i wish he wouldn't, as long as he stays out of mainstream, he has a chance to really bring something new

        He can really bring something new and enter into the mainstream. They are not mutually exclusive. Getting the "freaks and the fuckers" off the site doesn't prevent the service from doing something new. I think the idea of being connected to people one-on-one is appealing and don't think the appeal will fade. If only if there could be more serendipity with who you are connected with... I think that is an interesting opportunity right now.

      i think allowing people to opt in or out of adult content chats and reporting abuse / banning ip's that violate would go along way to keeping the edgeyness of the internet while allowing the mainstream the ability to live in their shell.
