Chatroulette....do you really want to try?

After seeing the reaction of a couple of our female classmates to a 30 seconds session on Chatroulette I decided to personally collect some statistics...

I joined 123 conversations and here are my results:
- 65% were single males and 40% of them were "exposed"
- 14% was advertising
- 13% were black screens (no camera)or non-recognizable images
- 5% were groups (all women couples)
- 4% were single women (0% exposed)

Another relevant tool for analyzing Chatroulette is Chatroulette map, a page that combines Google maps with some IP locating techniques, providing an almost-real time location of the people connected to the "Game"...with their pictures! (...not too hard to find an exposed guy on campus...)

Knowing all this...do you really want to play?
