Bitcoin Forum

I realize ChatRoulette hasn't met the expectations it was generating in the winter of 2010, but it is still a top 10,000 website.  I think bitcoin would be a good fit for ChatRoulette: it allows 'viewers' to reward 'performers' anonymously (I'm thinking card tricks and piano improv here, not what you guys are thinking).

Andrey Ternovskiy could skim his percentage from each transaction and finally have a way of monetizing his monster.

Sounds like another use for a tip jar :)

Exactly.  Is it possible to enter some text on your ChatRoulette profile page or something...?   Where you could post your Tip Jar Bitcoin Address...?

I just now added ChatRoulette to the http://bitcoinpromote.com (http://bitcoinpromote.com) page.   

Keep those suggested ideas for sites / merchants / organizations which should accept Bitcoin coming!  Also, you can help out by emailing me with more details to fill out the "details fields" that are missing information too.   Thanks!

I could see this going interesting places.

ChatRoulette doesn't have profiles as it is anonymous.  Which makes bitcoin such a suitable match.  Perhaps some sort of browser extension could handle the needed technology, but ideally it would be built in to ChatRoulette itself so that it received wide exposure.

I think the founder and investors have been having a difficult time monetizing ChatRoulette... here is a solution for them.

i wouldn't mind tipping to see what i'm thinking about :D

omegle.com ???
but wont this just become people whoring out boob shots for bitcoins?

There'll be some of that, but right now they're doing it for free.

I think it will be slightly amazing what could happen if monetization were possibly.  I'm constantly amazed at the human talent on display at YouTube.  I think some of that talent could make an appearance on CR if they thought they could make money from it.

Your bitcoin address would be your account number.

That's as simple as it needs to be.

I'm liking this idea... I've started a related thread under Project Development here:

Yeah it sounds like a good idea. It'll mostly be people showing off themselves for Bitcoin, but maybe it'll force people to be more fun in the end. There is some other sites where you could try like omegle and Bazoocam (http://bazoocam.org/en/).

hummmm, admin I think the last two posts are spammers...

There are programs that allow you to overlay stuff to your live webcam feed, would be kinda pain to manually write down a Bitcoin address though...
