Not only that, but they added their own extra features such as moderators to help quell the annoying nudity issue. One such factor is of course, Omegle, which quickly put out its own video chat feature not long after Chatroulette jumped onto the scene. This can be attributed to a lot of different factors. However, Chatroulette today is nowhere near the level of popularity it once was at. So, given the novelty of the concept and the entertainment factor it provided, it was no surprise how quickly Chatroulette rose to massive popularity, but it definitely had a lot of media attention help. You just don’t know what you’re going to get, and you get it instantly, and then you can switch to the next person instantly as well. The impact of such an addition cannot be understated – being able to instantly visualize your chat partner combined with never knowing what you’re going to see next – from pranks to beauty to disgusting scenes. As you might imagine, the addition of video to the random stranger connection concept was huge. Then, all of the sudden, Chatroulette emerged. There were random text chat sites such as Omegle, but none of them had that super important video streaming capability. Once upon a time there were no random video chat room sites on the internet.
