omegle – talk to stranger people than you normally do

Attention parents – here’s another site to block the kids from. At first I thought web site omegle.com – which bills itself as a chat service that allows you to “talk to strangers” – was serving up robots to engage people in talk. However it does seem that real live strangers power the other end of the conversation. If you’re interested in learning new ways to use 4 letter words in sentences or being asked for your A/S/L a few hundred times in a row (A/S/L = Age Sex Location) then this has your name all over it.

Actually, I’ve just had a great chat with a random Polish person. Very interesting – no A/S/L swapping at all, just talking about differences in culture.
