Chatroulette is website that allows for anonymous video and text chats. Visitors to the website are randomly entered into an online chat with another vistior. At any point either user may leave the current chat and make another random connection.

It was launched in November 2009 but has gained popularity in February 2010 after being featured on “Good Morning America,"[1] the New York Times [2] and New York Magazine[3].

The site currently gets about 20,000 unique vistors perday and was started by Andrey Ternovskiy, a 17-year-old high schoolstudent inMoscow.[4]
