Seems relatively useless to me. Suffers from the same problem as Chatroulete. Everyone just nexts you. No lasting conversations. It seems like you should gentle introduce ppl rather than just showing them a video feed of each other.

were you able to sign into it? When I try clicking 'Launch Airtime' it does nothing.

I had the same issue, I realise I had flash-block enabled. Fixed.

chatroulette 2.0 - conference calling with strangers without the dicks?

Looks like chat roulette with added social networking features.
